3.00 this is the 2 belts from the winder / coal skip / and tub tippler. Left belt is dirt / spoil only / the right is the ROM, run of mine, going to the prep plant. It looks like it is rising where it runs over the road bridge, so the head height was restricted for a short while. it was possible from here to walk via this place all the way virtually to the lamp room then the baths without going outside. Quite a fair walk
photo 3.19 far left is the 750 ton bunker. this was quite new really , 10 years old or so before it was blown up . the steep gantry is the new ROM and the alpine chute from the bunker is the flow to outside when the bunker was full
Once went on a school trip down the mine.a real eye opener
