D-11 and Rock Trucks Back Filling a BIG Hole

D11's and rock trucks backfilling strip mine in Stellarton, NS.

[@patrickhickey7439]

The operator is not permitted to be an angry person. I’d have a smile on my face the entire time I’d be in that cab, every time, until I retire.

Thank you very much!

[@cuzinitr]

If I lived nearby, I would park my motorhome there and just watch all day. It sure would beat watching the tv. Well done! Rich

[@sitatan]

I like heavy equipment. The operator is a very good skill. Very good engine sound. Thank you from Japan.

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

And thank you from Canada!

Great Video 👍Greetings from NL Canada🇨🇦

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

Thanks for watching

[@Indeewoods]

That feeling when the trucks don’t stop coming. Lol That one truck almost forgot to put the box down. Seen that before.

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

I saw a 50 Rock truck pull down some power line and break off two telephone poles after forgetting to put his box down. Lots of sparks flying that night!

[@manuelmosquera1038]

Beautiful worker .

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

We agree!

[@toddmack9224]

[@bengermac]

amazing video jim , would give anything for a drive on a d11, the largest i drove was a komatsu 275, but nothing beats the roar of the v8!!

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

It would be fun wouldn't it?

[@levisalvini4110]

I agree.....but the sound of a V12 in a D475 is not too shabby either.

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

Thanks.

Nice trucks

[@mikepoirier4882]

very good video

[@edw4698]

Gonna need a lot more dirt to fill that in. I think that dozer could use a little help.

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

They dug it so they'll have to fill it. They will just backfill it with overburden from the area they're mining in now.

[@RicamezzomoGaucho]

Very good 🤝🤝👍✌️

[@cascapediastjules8796]

Great video Jim. One of the best channels on KZbin. How many trucks do you figure was hauling to the dozer. They were more than bombing home for sure.

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

Not sure how many trucks were hauling to the dozer! Strip mining is all about production!

[@patrickmarcante8031]

muito show esse cara e esses videos

Good video,agree with cruzinitr would also love to watch them working.dont get this sort of thing happening on the side of highway in England..

[@johnm.evangelis693]

Hi Jim, The excavators load the trucks just so they can dump the material to fill a hole they are creating or am I missing the big picture? and if I am please explain it to me because with this heat I am a bit thick...

[@jestestuman]

John M. Evangelis they are filling hole that is not in use anymore. Coal is taken out, then the site is reclaimed and returned to nature and soon it will be a grassland or forest.

[@stewartcornes8886]

Dogs breakfast, Dozer operator on a jolly, they must have diesel for free. They are going against the principles of earthmoving, but what do I know, only have a mining PhD 🤔😁

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

In the town of Stellarton in Nova Scotia Canada.

[@NoName-bh8gk]

d11 has good job security, thats a big hole

[@ATOM09]

so big I don't even see a hole.

[@kevinslifeonthefarm2463]

what are u guys mining for at this site?

[@anders3210]

Excellent video, thanks! Just wonder where that coal mine is located?

[@ortaasyalipoyraz5601]

[@shayengineer10]

Next video, take off one of your socks and use it to filter out the wind noise.

[@mjethier]

can anything stop a d11? i've been trying to find videos of them hitting their max within reason traction wise etc. Cannot. I don't even have an application for one of these...but if I ever hit megaball and made 500 million...id buy one for devastation and fun.

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

I hope you win the megaball! I'd love to see your D11 i action, lol.

[@jannicklaursenlse9775]

Nop it Will not stop for eny ting !??

[@jamesnm21]

You'll have to buy some land to play with it too. Some mountain land that needs a road built to access it. Hone your tree clearing skills building the road and then lots of rock and earth to push around once you get there.

[@jameslindley924]

2000 LOOKS A BIT HYMAC !!!!!!!! but rest is mint

[@drumbasher]

What's the red digital numbers on the truck for?

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

+drumbasher It's an onboard scale that tells the weight of the load on the truck.

They ought to send that dozer to Washington and see if they can fill that big hole in Boehner's head!!!

[@rosco844]

so the wrong way, no dozer honking to dump and way too far off a back up that is a big accident

[@chessplayerelite669]

These are mining trucks NOT rock trucks

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

Chess PlayerElite What's the diff?

[@chessplayerelite669]

The trucks in this video are mining trucks because one they are meant to haul very large amounts of product by their very size compared to anything you would see on a construction site and two rock trucks, also known as end dumps or to be more presicee ADTs (Articulated Dump Trucks) articulate (bend in the middle) to turn.

yes they are sir

[@chessplayerelite669]

yes dumbass it means they bend (articulate) in the center to turn duh

[@chessplayerelite669]

Hey smart guy, rock trucks, end dumps and off-road trucks are ALL the SAME they're ADTs sorts like car automobile and vehicle

[@geraldfrasure9849]

I cant see why the trucks are dumpin at the top making that d-11 push it all that way lot easier ways to do that and cheaper and safer

[@JimHowDigsDirt]

Gerald frasure I'm not sure why they do it that way? I think it maybe it has something to do with compaction. Good question.

[@geraldfrasure9849]

guess they dont have anything else to do with that big d-one one lol

[@rosco844]

hah, Nobody has any organization like a proper mine. according the the mining code. They did not enter a dumping site properly, or dump properly

[@VernonChitlen]

thats just plain silly pushing it so far and the trucks backing over big rocks and slabs...

[@user-zu2bw7ig5v]

Its all about getting it done

[@jstoli996c4s]

Not very safe backing up a big truck like that down a hill backwards. Safer to push it down, or drive the trucks down to the end and turn around to dump.
