Finally got the old Gardner running the other day!

Re: Drag line
Looks like one of the older Class-type draglines made by Bucyrus-Erie. Don´t know what size it might be, but seems smaller than the Class24?
Sure thing an interesting find!

Re: Ruston Bucyrus Cable Excavators.
A 10-RBT(license built in Sweden by the firm Tornborg&Lundberg) was shown this summer with the Skimmer attachment. Certainly very fascinating to watch! http://www.classicmachinery.net/forum/images/post_img/104668_1554267527564e3b0a20705.jpg Original URL: http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff65/k...
