We had one of the largest earth movers on Earth right here about 1hr from home. She worked many years removing overburden 24hrs/day. Only being shutdown for repairs or large maintenance requirements such as oil changes in the enormous generators.

The Big Muskie.

This is all that is left of the old girl. The bucket.


Look at the size of those links!!


Now that's a clevice.  :laf:


Better pic of the chain links. Ya'll aint pickin them up by hand.  :nono:


There is a Memorial to all the known Miners of the area under this roof as well as several pics of the Muskie in action.


We were here.  :eyebrownod:


God Bless The USA!!  :yoyo: :yoyo:

Thanks for those pics Glen
I never worked around the Muskie or the Spade but I did help build one of the biggest Demag Shovels in Ohio and it is working around the Stonecreek area I did get a chance to sit in the operators seat before it was put into operation and couldn't even begin to imagine the power that was at my finger tips  :biggrin:

I WAS THERE this past weekend :yoyo:

I am thinking I am in a little deja vu here.  Didn't you (or someone else) post pictures of the bucket before?  I even checked the EFIX to make sure it was shot recently and it was shot at 1:07:45 today.

Bill-- If you have any idea where the Demag is I would like to know.  :eyebrow:

:laf: :laf: @ Jim.

Jerry-- I probably did.  :laf:

Cool Dave. Nice little place isn't it?

I only know Scott. Unless it's a different Scott. In that case I don't know Scott.  :alscalls: :alscalls:
