  • Very interesting video excursion!

  • @jeremylee99100 No that one was in real bad shape and half parted out

  • @PAmining did you do a video on the other one out thier close to this one

  • Thank you very much for the reply "PAmining" Yeah.....they all were "as rough as guts!!! Yet back then in their day, would we rather NOT have these noisy gas chambers and do the tough work of an Irish navy with a hand shovel, pick and wheelbarrow? (that's a "no brainer")

  • What Hurcules did these have? a 339?

  • @jimbo10003 Bay City colors consisted of a red/orange colored house with the boom, dipper handle and bucket and car body painted black. If you look when I show you the name on the counterweight you can still see some of the original paint by the letters. I have also seen some restored Bay City shovels at equipment shows that are painted in different colors too.
