Very nice - great to see the cable backhoe working.

I was in Sweden quite a bit last year (Solleftea) - wished I had time to make it to the mines near Gallivare. Really like Sweden!

(a little notice that the engineer says in the beginning of the film is that it has rained on the brake bands so thereof the Digger is so weak in the beginning)
