Some of those machines had two steering wheels, one facing forward and the other back and the seat was on a swivel so the operator could face either way.
The Ohio Valley Chapter of the Historical Construction Equipment Association announces the 7th Annual Old Construction & Surface Mining Equipment Show will be September 11th and 12th at the Harrison Coal & Reclamation Historical Park grounds. On Ohio 519 (Stumptown Road), between U.S. 22 and New Athens, ohio.
What an interesting dumper! It sure looks primitive. It looks like it would be rather irritating to operate. lol Could the dump bed be locked down to prevent premature dumps? With a setup like that it looks like if you're not careful you could lose a load. I wonder if any were ever converted over to hydraulic dump?

@Syxx423 There is a bed lock to prevent unwanted dumps, but the operator really gets shaken up.
