Could well be the future of all UK industry. Rows of tractors in a rewilded field whilst we eat bugs and lament over the taste of real beef..
Whilst trendy types cycle round shoreditch on ethnic bicycles hand woven from vegan yoghurt giving each other rewards for saving the planet.

I see your point , but without memory of the past everything will be lost forever!

Green lot would happily have them buckets recycled into right wing thuggery prison cells I’m sure!!

Wasn’t the actual coal taken out my smaller machines, the big ones were for overburden removal

As Giles says, smaller machines.

UK opencast mines some of the narrowest bands of coal in the world, to clean it off small machines with bladed buckets

What’s more depressing is my dad owns land with coal in it, identified for opencast by uk coal about 40 years ago.. never to see the light of day! Practically worthless now!
Maybe oneday a government will see sense??
