A few bulldozers work at the Blue Mountain Quarry. They usually work at the spot where the Skarloey Railway engines tip their loads of slate ready for it to go into the crusher. It is the job of the bulldozers to push the slate from the drop-off point into the crusher. Like the other vehicles, they are painted blue and orange and carry the quarry logo on their sides.

One of the bulldozer's number plates is "GLV 0914".
