The Mega Excavator is the 3rd and final tier of Excavators. It consumes Maintenance II instead of Maintenance I. It also consumes about 2x (2.17x) Diesel as an Excavator. The Mega Excavator scoops 60 Loose Products (assuming there's that much in the designation to grab) at a time so using Haul Truck (Dump) when mining with them is Highly Recommended.

Although it says it can't go under transports, that's a lie. You just need to get creative with the terrain. You can only place transports up to height 5, but you can create a -2 height tunnel underneath to avoid using ramps if you want.
