Apparatus for transporting and laying cable for electrical power or telecommunication signals. The apparatus has a mobile unit with support configured to align weight of the cable with the longitudinal central axis of the mobile unit. Caterpillar tracks carry and move the apparatus, which can be controlled remotely. The apparatuses can transport and lay cable at a delivery location by cooperating in tandem formation while maintaining alignment of the weight of the cable with the longitudinal central axis of each of the mobile units.
