Doubled the Length, But Will That Solve the Problem?

[@Orkneyboom]

I'm not sure how Ashville, Daniel and the team manage to make a 18 minute video about changing the boom on a material handler and have me hooked from start to finish... I seriously think they could make a feature film about cleaning mud from a dumper and I'd pay to see it in the Odeon...

[@sharkystreet3930]

i guess we all love machines

[@ShainAndrews]

I made it two seconds and knew it was bollocks. You must be into that sort of thing.

[@markarmstrong2592]

Fair play Daniel for spending all that money that nobody cares about and good man Flo for adopting so quick and learning in a short space of time great video guys

[@seancoleman8528]

Very impressed with the operator flo very skilled driver , well done Daniel for finding a solution

[@tonynewman8586]

Skilled driver ??? He’s emptying wagons ??? A good machine driver wouldn’t be doing that 😂😂

[@TheByard]

Flo makes it flow.

[@TheByard]

@@tonynewman8586 He's driving a very expensive piece of equipment, from very expensive wagons. Where, if damage is done very expensive downtime.

@@tonynewman8586 pipe down hater

[@skoomskaa]

@@TheByard no use trying to convince that dude. From his comment you can tell he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. It takes a very skilled operator to do that job safely AND efficiently. Not only is he swinging that bucket but he’s also maneuvering that machine all over the yard.

[@HarleyCaplin]

Now you’ve got to change the arm on all of the soft toys to match 😂

[@joggingmixlondon6895]

😂 I like it 😂 …Mine that I purchased is first in line 😂

[@Mr456sb]

Off loaded a few trains loads of ballast , at Manchester metro link job , a few yrs ago now , watching this I wonder if people appreciate how easy it is to derail the wagons . Nice to see a smooth steady operator , hat s off to Flo , best wishes from New Zealand

[@johnnyyen3007]

Uraaaaa, a train montage at last, I've missed my fix ! I'm really glad that you've got everything sorted out, and your wise words at the end are so true: You need to build great relationships with your suppliers and contractors, and give staff the right tools for the job to keep everyone happy and make Ashville more efficient and cost effective. Well done! ❤

[@Mike-qv3pz]

Now the LH60 looks like a beast. The smaller arm looked so strange imo.

[@Nind-yu4sz]

A standalone train montage. Love it

[@scublessbunney]

You're only as good as your worker's.

[@NZHazard]

Very impressed Daniel, its been a long time coming, and working with Liebherr & GBFR to resolve an ongoing issue which would benefit yourselves, but their companies as well. Looking forward to see what other improvements you can do at the yard to innovate for your customers and drive efficiency (like your bagging plant.).

[@examinerian]

Hey, look - it's a train offload video!! Excellent!

[@tomsawyer8102]

flo is a master! love the content Daniel! been here since episode 1, never stop, youre an insperation to tradies all over the world!

[@harrymarshall-lack]

Very impressive bit of kit! Looks more and more like a dinosaur of the machine, which is awesome! Thanks for sharing your journey and so exciting to see your dream become reality.

[@Blackwater_House]

Brilliant Technical Episode, with great camera coverage AND it included A TRAIN. Congratulations all round.

[@jaymitchell1181]

Nice to see you upgrading/getting rid of the 2019 wagons via auction can't wait for the video

[@gregchapman5556]

Nice to see it all worked out 👍Flo is da man 👌.

[@jasonwright131]

I really like how excited Daniel gets for his business. i wish i still had that excitement for my business. hope i can get that back again.

[@fittermatt]

I’m impressed at how well the truck is cleaned out by the clamshell bucket

[@Jdigger4130]

much respect on yer company dude! we do things much different here in California and always like seeing how its done in other places! hoping fer yer success and will watch how yer liehberr iron plays out. literally zero machines here in norther cali to speak of. my guys say they don't last in our conditions n they buy cat Komatsu n Deere Hitachi . always cool seeing a man succeed! couldn't imagine doin biz like this in London!

[@TheByard]

The idea is to buy near where spares etc. are available quickly. What conditions are they referring to, as the weather in the US is found in other places around the world.

[@joggingmixlondon6895]

It’s arrived. Yey! And, I missed the trains. Good job Flo, and all the teams involved. It’s always nice seeing you smile Daniel. Congratulations it’s all marvellous. Take Care❤😊

[@DarkAngel-oq5ox]

I don't know Jack about any of this, but yet I've sat and watched it all with interest! Excellent work by all.

[@MonkeyGus]

Nice watching the Liebherr mechanics at work, real pro's.

Once again. Daniel and the team did an amazing job!

[@leechez7470]

How bloody interesting was that love these little things you’d never see or think about. Another class vid by Asheville

[@machinehireltd9242]

Great to see a beast of a machine, doing the job it was purchased to do with an operator who has serious teckers..and a boss who is an insperation to all

aaaaaah the train montage returns!

[@alvaanderson1123]

Fantastic addition to the LH60. Great job. I'm from Jamaica, really look forward to your videos

[@djpjreal]

one great thing i love about daniel is that he takes care of his employees and the machines, especially giving them bluetooth :)

[@bleakyfinder2692]

Well thought out Daniel, excellent. Flo is a Golden Handler, worth his weight in Gold to your Company.

[@bentleymtafu23]

Its really cool that the videos are made for everyone. You don't need to have been on a mine to get it, vid is so well done

[@LordMuck]

Well done Daniel - proper job there 😉👌🏼

[@alexanderscaffold7149]

Finally a train #montage 🙌 you should have a single channel dedicated to unloading and loading of trains, live streaming with no editing 👌 you know it makes sense.

[@Jonathan-mk1ju]

@ashville Totally agree, a channel for live streaming trains.

[@Lando_P1]

Very nice. I’ve heard of other guys wishing they had a longer stick. I’ve never had an issue reaching the furthest corner of a rail car.

[@robertamurrant]

The new graphics guy is doing a great job. Loved the highlighting of the various parts you were talking about.

[@dangandiecast]

Glad to see the new configuration on the LH60 is up and running!

[@antonoat]

Flo is the man! 👏👍😀. Really interesting film guys, best of luck with this moving forward!

[@todortoshkov]

Now, may we have MOAR train montages, please! :)

[@wojciechwybicki8663]

Fantastic! Congrats TEAM!

[@keithrogers2107]

the smile on your face says it all !! well done , whats the next challenge

[@johnpeplow3985]

The LH60 is a fantastic piece of kit and the man using it is very skilled at his job.

[@obad26]

I believe the first video I watched for Ashville was the delivery of the LH60. Kinda shocked it has been 2 years since then.

[@russjam121]

Glad you found a solution with liebherr Daniel. Especially as the lh60 was originally unfit for purpose. Now it is the machine you actually ordered. 👍

[@TheHarrelfarm]

The production quality on this video is amazing, These people should be making movies!

[@Kitchevo]

Awesome piece of kit! Now you have no excuse to bring back the train montages!!!!

[@trajo189]

Quality video. Daniel and video team, Flo, Liebherr & GB railfreight great stuff.

[@Probity100]

So cool ! A train and LH60 montage! Well done Daniel. I love machinery & trains and one day I will tour this yard.

[@wezdaynes2072]

Daniel you have a great driver in that machine. That has to be the best thing you paid for. Great video

[@stankolodin5586]

12:10 was a very video game like shot. Also I know everything is possible but if an engineer calculated that the expended reach stick won't tip the unloader then it probably won't. For builders, the suspense was well built. No pun intended.

[@marcmcsorley7707]

Never doubted it 👍 Have you ever thought about a Poly Cutting edge for the clamshell? I saw an episode where you were trying to cut the noise of scraping.

[@j.m.5995]

I like Flo's Workflow. The man just cannot be shaken

[@jxrdnz]

Your production quality has improved tremendously this past two years

[@jamalrajput1]

Hats off to the driver 👍

[@alfrichter969]

awesome video we do that all day on the scrapyard of my company we are deloading 18+ waggons per shift plus we are loading scrap into vessels up to 60 tons per vessel we load up to 40 of these per 8h shift then it gets molten into bars and other forms best job i ever worked at

[@TheByard]

Hallet & Silbermann, Thats a name from the past well I'm talking the 1960s and setting the main supply and spoil loading site. At Ferry Lane, Tottenham where tunnel spoil was brought to the surface via a bottom dump system from the twin tunnels. Onto a conveyor belt up an incline and dumped in the yard for loading into Halls 11 cy trucks using a Matbro FE loader. H & S did a lot of equipment installation and transport for the Victoria Line tube project. I would like to suggest casting a level slab, to store the spare bucket and carry out the swap. This will ensure the pins line up easily and hoses don't drag in the dirt. Again, speeding up the changeover even more.

[@AbcdEfgh-zp1sn]

Why are they taking back the old arm if you purchased the machine .

[@jdrenovations]

I'm glad it worked out Daniel, it looks great.

[@smtsoftwaresolutions1966]

I loved this video. I can see Ashville becoming a Netflis series in the future.

Awesome - love the engineering videos

Dan sitting here with the family waiting for episode 112

[@everestyeti]

That thing was a beast even before it got the extra long arm, now it's on another level. Saving a 100 hundred hours a year is quite a bit when your dealing with material management.

[@ryanscott4703]

This calls for a train montage. Keep smashing it

[@leegardner5002]

Daniel seems the kind of owner/gaffer that rings somebody to pick something off the floor so he doesn’t have too

[@markmcpherson7956]

Weird as I was only looking today to see if I had missed this 1. Brill videos as usual

[@philbrown94]

Daniel, I'm still impressed in your faith of LIE-bherr. It just seems like they miss sold you the LH60 and probably carried the wrong tape measure. How did they also mess up the connection having sold you the spec you wanted and site visits? As much as you advocate for LIE-bherr, I would say generally your videos, and all the issues with the LH60 and other Liebherr plant you have, doesn't put them in the best light.

[@YepYepYepYepYep]

Love the mid week vids 👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@Hightower600]

Why don’t you fit a clamshell attachment to the Liebherr R926 and be able to offload each train even quicker?

[@charecedavis-jones8505]

This was an awesome video! Great job, Flo!

[@leebarber5528]

Been waiting for this one 🔥🔥🔥

[@pureneglect4702]

Looks sweet, does this mean we can the train montages back in weekly 🤞

[@heavyhaulage1]

I’ve been waiting so long for this video. Awesome 💪🏻

[@neilcrawford8303]

Having watched the sea dredged aggregate trains from Bretts at Cliffe in Kent, and limestone from Yeoman's, now Aggregate Industries quarry in Somerset being unloaded at Day's yard at Tolworth, I wonder if having a hopper discharge facility would impose more costs from GBRF and therefore be cost neutral or even cost prohibitive over the current arrangement. Hoppers are faster, but the locomotive is running the whole time the train is being discharged as it has to move the train along one wagon at a time over the pit. Tolworth trains are usually just 16 hoppers and it takes about 90 minutes to unload. A class 66 has a 140 litre 12 cylinder engine, the EMD710, each cylinder is 11.6 litres!. That's a lot of fuel GBRF would want paying for while they shunt the train. Plus pay for the driver and the man on the ground managing the movements.

[@TheDaniell2]

Twój kanał jest zajebisty wyróżniający się z tłumów. pozdrawiam i życzę powodzenia

[@damianfuller74]

Brilliant! Inspirational. Dumb question maybe. Do the hydraulic pumps need beefing up with the extra distance of line?

[@bobbytrollo]

To celebrate, I think we should have a montage of train montages?

[@chrisclose7793]

looks amazing the lh60 with its new boom

[@diesel1765]

With the postion LH60 was away from the primiary line to unload the secondary line. I think you can still be able the unload the primary line just not perpendicular.

[@ttbko]

Clearly, despite my years of arguing to the contrary, size does matter. Who knew!!! 😘

[@LunaRayToo]

Nice! Solid upgrade!

[@DanielWoolley]

Flo the lh60 is lifting off the ground when empty, but when full of material at full stretch it doesn't!?!?!?! You've got a magic machine there my friend

[@myronsmith2114]

If it becomes a issue they could add counterbalance weights

[@kieranosullivan02]

It's not exactly full stretch reaching the 2nd line now, has to be close to lifting tho if it did lift at full reach empty

[@Siberianhuskykai]

Good watch and we’ll put together and we’ll done flo made it look easy 💪👍

[@karabobante5791]

very impressed Daniel and team keep up the good work,,

[@godfreyiga2013]

4 am and Iam watching Ashville , wonderful show incredible Machine

[@dimosk7389]

the content of your video is already amazing. i dont think you need to create all this artificial "drama" every 2 minutes. it makes it cheesy, and reminds me of all these documentaries where everything goes wrong at the exact day the film crew is doing the filming "will the bucket clear the first wagons?" well, yeah, its obvious from the video that it will

[@neilfarren1224]

Love the new arm

[@norfolknchance.500]

Yours is bigger than mine Dan! Haha! Top job, I hope GB Railfrieght bunged you a couple of quid towards that, as you're saving them diesel and time too!? 👌✌

[@tommybowler1700]

Been waiting for this video for a while, awesome 🙂

[@OJHussick]

Lot of drama for something no doubt checked by your engineers and theirs… Thank heavens for all that suspenseful music, so we knew there was SO MUCH peril…

[@johnhewit3099]

Great machine and investment Daniel. Love the video as always.

[@tonyheath7125]

Hi Daniel, what a thoroughly good presentation by you and your team. A pleasure to watch and of course excellent collaboration with Liebherr.

[@torspedia]

Only Daniel could make a dry subject, for those of outside the industry, rather captivating. 🙂
