Re: Neat dragline model
I am not usually interested in models but that first set up was really good Martyn. To me a bit reminiscent of our local brickfields with the narrow gauge railway. The whole thing looks so real with attention to detail and nothing too shiny!

Re: Neat dragline model
The operation of that second walking dragline is so realistic - makes it very difficult to guess the scale of the model. Can you provide any further info please Martytn?

Re: Neat dragline model
Found a load more videos on the Bucyrus 10W including a reference to details posted on the 'strip mine.org' forum in 2007, but can't find the site - anyone know the correct address?
The same builder's 9W is to 1/16 scale - maybe the 10W is too?

Re: Neat dragline model
This one was built by UK model builder, Roddy Turner. Not only a super model but complete with realistic operating controls.
