What is it?

Post #1 by Dah » Fri Oct 09, 2015 5:09 pm

Hi,

Any thoughts on what the box attached to the RH300 walkway is?

Only thing that I could think of was an emergency escape ladder but not sure they bothered with them in the 80's?!

Dave.

Hi Dave - Have posted it on Facebook Opencast Coal page - there's a bloke on there (John Hewitt) who was involved with the RH300 at Godkin

If you don't mind Ian, I'd love to contact your bloke on Facebook. Not on there myself but feel free to pass on my email address: davidhewitt4@gmail.com

Thanks very much
Dave
