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...
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
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
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! ❤
@@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.
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.).
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.
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❤😊
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.
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!
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
Couldn't help but notice the "site of former bottom discharge unit" Where did it go? It feels a shame its not an option anymore to expand your serious conveyor belt empire. Can't help but wonder about ongoing costs of running the LH60 vs the initial investment of doing a new conveyor belt system. Could you handle more, more often?
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.
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.
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
Great solution, whilst it has cost money to solve it is a great solution. Flo already looks at home with the new stick. Hope we get some regular train offloading back on the weekly vids.
Looks a bit different now when offloading main line. Great to watch anyway. Operator is doing great job with a bucket. Just curious, is it okay to hit top of a wagon as was shown in this video ?
Yeah totally fine mate. They will take it. You do get damage but not enough for anyone to care. It’s standard practice to smack buckets on the top rims of dumpers when loading sticky earth to get the bucket fully cleared out
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.
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!? 👌✌

i guess we all love machines
I made it two seconds and knew it was bollocks. You must be into that sort of thing.

Very impressed with the operator flo very skilled driver , well done Daniel for finding a solution
Skilled driver ??? He’s emptying wagons ??? A good machine driver wouldn’t be doing that 😂😂
Flo makes it flow.
@@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

Now you’ve got to change the arm on all of the soft toys to match 😂
😂 I like it 😂 …Mine that I purchased is first in line 😂
A standalone train montage. Love it
You're only as good as your worker's.
Now the LH60 looks like a beast. The smaller arm looked so strange imo.
Hey, look - it's a train offload video!! Excellent!
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.).
I don't know Jack about any of this, but yet I've sat and watched it all with interest! Excellent work by all.
flo is a master! love the content Daniel! been here since episode 1, never stop, youre an insperation to tradies all over the world!
Nice to see you upgrading/getting rid of the 2019 wagons via auction can't wait for the video
one great thing i love about daniel is that he takes care of his employees and the machines, especially giving them bluetooth :)
Brilliant Technical Episode, with great camera coverage AND it included A TRAIN. Congratulations all round.
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.
I’m impressed at how well the truck is cleaned out by the clamshell bucket
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.
Nice to see it all worked out 👍Flo is da man 👌.
Nice watching the Liebherr mechanics at work, real pro's.
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❤😊
aaaaaah the train montage returns!
How bloody interesting was that love these little things you’d never see or think about. Another class vid by Asheville
The production quality on this video is amazing, These people should be making movies!

Once again. Daniel and the team did an amazing job!
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
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
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.
@ashville Totally agree, a channel for live streaming trains.
Flo is the man! 👏👍😀. Really interesting film guys, best of luck with this moving forward!
Fantastic addition to the LH60. Great job. I'm from Jamaica, really look forward to your videos
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.
Well thought out Daniel, excellent. Flo is a Golden Handler, worth his weight in Gold to your Company.
Your production quality has improved tremendously this past two years
The LH60 is a fantastic piece of kit and the man using it is very skilled at his job.
The new graphics guy is doing a great job.
Loved the highlighting of the various parts you were talking about.
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
Glad to see the new configuration on the LH60 is up and running!
Quality video. Daniel and video team, Flo, Liebherr & GB railfreight great stuff.
Hats off to the driver 👍

the smile on your face says it all !! well done , whats the next challenge
I like Flo's Workflow. The man just cannot be shaken
Daniel you have a great driver in that machine. That has to be the best thing you paid for. Great video
Awesome piece of kit! Now you have no excuse to bring back the train montages!!!!
Fantastic! Congrats TEAM!
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. 👍
Finally, a long awaited train montage
Well done Daniel - proper job there 😉👌🏼
16:04 awsome! great peace of equipment
Welldone Daniel flow a top man congratulations to all at Asheville
So cool ! A train and LH60 montage! Well done Daniel. I love machinery & trains and one day I will tour this yard.
Now, may we have MOAR train montages, please! :)
I believe the first video I watched for Ashville was the delivery of the LH60. Kinda shocked it has been 2 years since then.
I’ve been waiting so long for this video. Awesome 💪🏻
Why don’t you fit a clamshell attachment to the Liebherr R926 and be able to offload each train even quicker?
What we've all been waiting for!
I'm glad it worked out Daniel, it looks great.
Yet again the motivation of Daniel gets it done😁 well done👍
SHALOM 🔥
Daniel seems the kind of owner/gaffer that rings somebody to pick something off the floor so he doesn’t have too
Hi Daniel, what a thoroughly good presentation by you and your team. A pleasure to watch and of course excellent collaboration with Liebherr.
Love the mid week vids 👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Well done Flo!
I loved this video. I can see Ashville becoming a Netflis series in the future.
This calls for a train montage. Keep smashing it
Couldn't help but notice the "site of former bottom discharge unit" Where did it go?

Been waiting for this one 🔥🔥🔥
Ashville on a Wednesday thats a treat😋
Good watch and we’ll put together and we’ll done flo made it look easy 💪👍
That is a monster of a machine 💪
This was an awesome video! Great job, Flo!

"will the bucket clear the first wagons?" well, yeah, its obvious from the video that it will
Why are they taking back the old arm if you purchased the machine .
Great solution, whilst it has cost money to solve it is a great solution. Flo already looks at home with the new stick. Hope we get some regular train offloading back on the weekly vids.
Weird as I was only looking today to see if I had missed this 1. Brill videos as usual
4 am and Iam watching Ashville , wonderful show incredible Machine
1:11 whys that area blurred out
Love these videos! Much love from Seattle
Been waiting for this video for a while, awesome 🙂
FINALLY! it had to be said 18 months is far too long when you submitted the plans specs to the manufacture for a solution.
Looks a bit different now when offloading main line. Great to watch anyway. Operator is doing great job with a bucket. Just curious, is it okay to hit top of a wagon as was shown in this video ?
Yeah totally fine mate. They will take it.
You do get damage but not enough for anyone to care. It’s standard practice to smack buckets on the top rims of dumpers when loading sticky earth to get the bucket fully cleared out
Dan sitting here with the family waiting for episode 112
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.
Brilliant! Inspirational. Dumb question maybe. Do the hydraulic pumps need beefing up with the extra distance of line?
very impressed Daniel and team keep up the good work,,
To celebrate, I think we should have a montage of train montages?
Verry niceee !!!!
Quick question wy you guys don't expend and take that yard over ??
Looks sweet, does this mean we can the train montages back in weekly 🤞
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!? 👌✌
Great contant Absolutely loved it 🖤
Twój kanał jest zajebisty wyróżniający się z tłumów.
pozdrawiam i życzę powodzenia
Great video again Daniel.
Great machine and investment Daniel. Love the video as always.
Daniel how many hours does it take to unload this size train?
