RB195s, Demag H185 & RH120

[SRB]

Dug out these couple of snaps of RB195's, a Demag H185 and a trusty RH120, taken at the old Wimpey Mining who became Miller Mining, Bleak House site in Cannock around 1997ish.

Great Pictures these were just what I wanted to see, Did you say they might be opening it up again?

It's always great to see UK Opencast photos, especially like those above.
Miller Mining were sold by the Miller Group to Scottish Coal around the same time they sold Miller Civil Engineering (now Morgan EST) to Morgan Sindall .

Scottish Coal have some old Demag and O&K excavators for sale via their Castlebridge plant divison, an 1979 O&K face shovel for £45k!

Scottish Coal had a lot of ex Miller kit at their Brymbo opencast/reclamaition job a couple of years ago. RH120, RH40, Terex 100tonners and a couple of coal shovels. When the kit was first brought on to the site they had 3 terex TS24 scrapers but these soon disappeared, not too sure if they went back up North or ended up like the Terex dumps going under the gas axe.

Great photos, looks like they inherited some right old rust buckets from Miller!
