THIS VIDEO SHOWS THE ANTHRACITE KING MOVING THREE STEPS TO HIS LEFT ( ABOUT 20 FEET ) AND ALSO STAYING A SAFE DISTANCE FROM THE HOLE.. IN ALL IT TAKES SEVEN STEPS TO FIRST BACK AWAY FROM THE HOLE, TURN THEN TAKE THREE STEPS, AND THEN TURN AGAIN AND TAKE TWO STEPS UP TO THE HOLE.

What a beast of a machine. Oh how I love working and building BIG. These machines make the ships engines I machined look like dinky toys, LOL.

I use to watch these things"walk" around the strip mines at Dugger Indiana in the 70s. What a way to spend the afternoon.

I wish I would've had the time to see these things back then. I remember all three working way out in the distance when going to Freeland the "back way".

Looks a bit like me learning to line dance.

Has there ever been mishaps with those moving or "walking"? Like a foot completely stops, or the entire machine tipped?

Looked like it was getting a little too close to the edge of the drop off to suit me. I hope it was solid.
