Not saying that it ran on coal was true, but it is more then possible. Most of those large excavation machines were in fact "plugged" into the grid, some used diesel generators where the mine was just to far off the grid. Could they have used a coal fired boiler and steam turbine to power a electric generator ? Sure but I can,t see some one ordering a system so much more complicated when diesel fuel at the time was like 20 cents a gallon. But on the other hand in its hayday that machine was running 24-7 and a turbine would not require nearly as much maintenance and would last much longer then a diesel -electric set up. .

I don’t no where ferroconcrete ships are in use today, but the last time a ferroconcrete ship was constructed in Europe, was during the German occupation. The ship still exists today as church ship “Kerkschip St Josef” in the port of Antwerp (Belgium). In WW I the French built several ferroconcrete ships to be used as army transports. www.kerkschip-antwerpen.be/erfgoed.htm

@@wkruit ferrocement. It's not concrete. There are plenty of ferro vessels out there but the advantage in materials cost is outweighed by labour costs, because the system requires a lot of it. Also it can be hard to get insurance because amateur-built hulls are often less than perfect. They can be overweight because too much mortar has been used and this makes them weaker, not stronger. However a pro built ferro hull will last as well as a steel or GRP one.

Just one more reason that GM shouldn't get bailed ever again, all they had to do was adjust the angle of the wheel where it meets the rails and that ride would smooth right out as well as increasing the top speed. Same thing with Canada's Turbo train in the 60's through the mid 70's, it kept jumping the rails at just over 100mph for that very reason. We used to scramble to get our gear off the tracks when that thing came flying through, rail yard crew gear that is. Our train tracks are the same ones used for the steam engines, terrible ride.

Interesting fact - the Cadillac "Miller Meteor" ambulances are INCREDIBLY rare and valuable. Think hundreds of thousands of dollars valuable. They were for the film like using the Delorean for back to the future - though orders of magnitude rarer. Excluding the ECTO-1 hack-ups, there are something like 50-60 known to still exist. Exceedingly rare. It would be absurd if Sony sold that car, and it's even more absurd they haven't restored it. Even as the prop car, it'd easily fetch 200 grand for private sale. My former ambulance company still has one in its original 1950's/60's baby blue and white livery, in absolutely pristine, fully restored condition. We use it for parades and at funerals for fallen medics. One of our oldest medics passed away a few years ago, he was the last one at the company that remembered driving those old boats for real in the 60's and 70's. He said that they were staggeringly comfortable and smooth compared to our modern rigs with the massive V8 and cadillac ride. Also interesting fact - if you never let the ambulance certification lapse, they could be grandfathered in despite meeting no modern standards. As long as they had the minimum required equipment of a modern rig, they can be kept as functional service ambulances. Ours isn't, but I think there are something like five of the old caddy ambulances in America that are still legally registered as ambulances.

This is not Bagger 258, it is still in use in West Germany. This is SRs 1500 and it used to work until 2002 in Meuro, East Germany. It was made by VVB TAKRAF, Lauchhammerwerk is a part of it. Furthermore, all of these are powered by high-voltage electricity and can not run on coal. Which also would not make sense because this one was used to dig overburden, not coal.

There's a giant electric excavator in West Mineral, Kansas named Big Brutus. It was used in the 60's and 70's for coal strip mining. It weighs 9.3 millions lbs and is now a museum that is open to the public. It ran off electricity and inside there are gigantic motors that powered everything from the tracks, to the booms and other equipment. There are stations all over the place for maintenance guys to ride along with it and just keep things oiled and lubricated at the time. It's really cool to walk around inside of it. If you ever get to Kansas, this is in the southeastern area and worth a visit.

I dug through them and saw one was a 1950's schwinn california beach cruiser with its original badges (big money) so we cleaned it up, powder coated the frame, rebuilt the coaster brake, new grips and cables, and I resold the thing for $5000 in 2007

Also, each bucket doesn’t start loading up until it’s at the bottom of the wheel & empties just after top dead centre, so at any one time it could only logically hold about 2,100 cubic feet.

The Aerotrains were operated by Rock Island railroad into the late 1960's, punishing their commuter passengers for many years. They were not returned to a warehouse after a year, but wer rejected for use by the Pennsylvania, Union Pacific, and New York Central railroads because they were so rough riding. The light weight was not the problem with propulsion, it was the fact that the engine only powered 2 axles, with a 1200 HP diesel engine, not enough for a bunch of cars. Not a problem in the flat midwest.

Trains are limited in how tightly they can turn - most often by the length of the train cars. This limits where one can lay tracks, due to having to curve the rails in a minimum arc, and how much urban access a train can be granted. I suspect that having shorter cars and locomotives meant that they could handle tighter turns - which would have allowed them to do things like drive cargo straight to (rail-equipped) factories, get closer to potential passengers for convenience, etc.

I've been at the Bagger, it's truly and amazing machine and a sight to behold. But it doesn't feed coal into itself, it feeds the coal into the power plant that feeds electricity to the Bagger

I saw some similar abandoned excavators in Ukraine, in a KZbin video by some Dutch urban explorers (Exploring the Unbeaten Path). What made it especially eerie is that the mine they were in had flooded, so all that was showing was the upper portion. On top of that it was winter, so they were frozen in ice...

The bagger newer dug for coal, but removed the covering earth layers for later open-pit mining. It never burned coal itself, but ran on electricity, supplied by 6kV cables. Just sayin'

Interesting about the McBarge. I lived in Vancouver for over a year and never realized it was there. Will have to look it up when I visit again (assuming they haven't moved it by then). The short fate of the GM AeroTrain is also interesting in that the Disneyland "mini-me" version of that same train suffered essentially the same issues and was dismantled in equally short order.

I beg to differ. My vehicle is very unique. It has a 15 speed transmission, ten headlights, stainless steel bumpers filled with concrete, it is hazard yellow, the ignition system is completely unique. I do not even have to lock it. Nobody would know how to start it. I will be adding a pickup truck bed to it next year.

There is a strange story about a batmobile that 'disappeared'. A motor enthusiast in Sweden built a replica of the 1989 Tim Burton batmobile in the 1990's. It was referenced from an airfix model (or equivalent) and by many accounts it was a really well-made replica, fully driveable and road-worthy. (I actually saw out in traffic once as a child) The ownerr/builder and his batmobile naturally got a lot of attention and appeared in a lot of car shows, magazines and tv-shows. This wasn't that clever, because it turned out the guy had massive tax debts. The tax agency decided the car was worth a lot of money, but before they could force him to sell it and pay his debts, the car was mysteriously gone. The batmobile was never reported as stolen but it wasn't filed as sold, exported or scrapped either. So, as the story goes: somewhere there is a fully functional, unregistered batmobile in hiding... I don't remember how the story ended and I might be wrong on some of the details. It is a fun story nonetheless. Could this be the same one?

Builders of the vehicle were photographed by satellite. Years later they were shown pictures and could pick themselves out in the photo.
