Great video, I operated a 8750 for 28yrs in Alberta
-
See it everyday, it’s about 10 miles from my house in Cross Tx.
-
As already stated: one of the best videos showing a dragline in operation I have seen so far. I often asked myself how a dragline can be used to remove overburden. This video finally solves the mystery. Thank you!

You get an idea of how big this thing is with the shot with the Dozer behind it. I saw a dragline in operation in FL as a teenager, the drag bucket was so big, you could drive a rock truck into it. The amount of materiel it moved in an 8 hr shift was mind boggling.

My buddy does it again!! The principal of a dragline is just like scrapers, once the cutting edge (or in this case teeth) hit the dirt it never againstops until dumped at its final destination, just like a scraper!

You produce some of the very best videos on YT! Great job 👏

Beautiful machine and awesome video!
-
Awesome video! I had no idea draglines were still in use.

my old man swung one of these for years here in aus., used to go with him to work on school hols sometimes as a kid.. huge eye opener then, still is now.. pity the machine sits dormant these days, fresh off a multi million $ overhaul, then parked up 5 or 6 yr ago now :/ built back in ~1985 or so

The moans and creaks it makes as it works makes it sound like a living creature!

Another great video. Never seen a dragline video on the channel and have to say this is the BEST perspective of a dragline in operation I’ve ever seen. The sound of him slinging the material is also so well done. Lived in SoCal my Entire life and this aint’ Nowhere close! Where is this?
-
So awesome. Probably the best video on you tube of a working drag line. Thank you sharing and keep up the great work!

Worked on at a coal mine that had one of those. Thanks for sharing.

Great video. The 8200 is a good machine. Beautiful cream digging there, hardly a rock in sight. Just what a dragline operator dreams of.

I go to a pit for work and from the distance all you can see is the tips booms moving like dinosaurs. When you get to the edge and see how deep the pit is and realize how massive the drag links are it puts things into perspective. I wonder if they will ever leave the hole they’ve created.
