Hello,
Here are two photos of filling the shaft at Deep Navigation Colliery,Treharris.This was the deepest shaft in The Coal Field.
1st photo.the Cat 211 is filling the shaft, the dump truck is a DJB.
2nd.photo. a fleet of DJB's waits to tip.
The 38 R-B shovel is demolishing the compressor house at Merthyr Vale Colliery (Aberfan). And what about Wimpey's classic AEC Mamoth Major Tipper.
Fred.
