I am glad you have added another video of the old Hawthorn Mine. Being From Vigo County and having my grandfather haul coal from this mine and all the others around Vigo and Sullivan Co. Thank You!!
Being up close to it during operation probably wouldnt be possible now with all the safety regs. Wide angle stationary camera`s etc just doesnt give any idea about the size of this dragline. All of which makes this footage quite invaluable actually, thanks for uploading and sharing!
Very cool footage. Would have loved to see the rest of the process. As someone modelling the Indiana Southern Railroad which ran up to this very mine, this footage is fascinating.
Gary seems like the nicest man you could ever meet
Fantastic old school footage - cheers

Tremendo mastodonte, es impresionante apreciar estas máquinas de cerca.

Very nice to see it walking backwards at being very close
Walking dragline 👍
Is this the same machine that crossed Interstate 70 in the nineties?
