I remember seeing this in action when I was a kid from a distance.
It was all electrically powered too

We had a visit to a Nature reserve just out side of Leeds.
And was created by this when the River Aire took a shine to where it was digging.
Parked next to the car park and seems right at home there too.

Well bugger me that takes me back. I saw that in action in the open cast too when I was a kid. "Big John" dragline.
Funny thing was it moved on feet not tracks, quite a thing to see in action
Did you see it in the Leeds area ???
It did "Walk"
Check out the massive "Cams" near the base.
Truely Awesome piece of kit !!!!

Looking at it again I think there was a couple of them, the one I saw was a different one working near Corby IIRC. I remember being told they had got it to walk from one site to another, 13 miles cross country
Yes I saw that one last year and didn`t even know it was so close to me.
Awesome piece of kit.

true, i'm also planning a walk round clipstone head stocks just down the road from me.
the tallest headstocks in western Europe, mind you i did grow up round mining when i was a kid.
