    Looks like the Bucyrus-Erie electric dragline used in the central Pennsylvania strip mines operated by Benjamin Coal Co.

      It's a Marion dragline. The tri structure(the mast and pyramid on the house). It looks like it might be an Marion 8200.

      Not very efficient that's for sure. It was either the hardest sand in the Universe or they had an elevation limit on their cut. Whatever the reason may be, I have no doubt those quarter or half buckets don't come close to offsetting the operating cost. He might have been smoothing the bottom, but I can't imagine why. Maybe that's as deep as the good sand goes. Who knows. One thing for sure- it's an awesome machine to watch. I've sat in a smaller drag at a coal mine in PA, and it was sweet let me tell you. I'm used to the cab of a D-6 or a Volvo 250, but they have nothing on a dragline. You could live in the cab of one of those. Just the cab. Heck, there were 4 of us in the cab watching the operator do his thing and we still had plenty of room to walk around. Amazing machines.

      Various ways of mining in FL. Dredges, draglines, excavators. Dredges are used to extract the sandy materials. What people don't know is FL is mostly caprock and gravel with sand. The caprock is extremely hard, takes hammers or dragline force to break
