“Mining #Shorts”

In the middle of the Appalachian Mountains, 2x P&H 2800 mining shovels sit dead in the abandoned pit. A sad story about these machines that will most likely get dismantled in the next years to come… This is West Virginia mining right there!

  1. I live in wv. A lot of our coal miners aren't around any more due to black lung. A friend of mine has watched people die in those mines. I love heavy equipment, but coal poisons the land and the people who mine it. No one should have to watch friends die to feed their family.

  2. For some of y'all out there in this world remember y'all told those other boys none of that s*** worked so they had nothing to go through to stay afloat you'll better hope y'all didn't go and redevelop against it

  3. Start mining coal again, stop buying out of country energy sources.
    I'm living on a sea of anthracite, some places it sticks out of the ground. The current administration shut the place down, caused area wide layoffs.

  4. They are well out of hrs, and if left to operate, they will fail at the coal face in a spectacular manner.
    Instead they’ll be picked apart to keep other machines going in the fleet, and the core components sent away for overhaul, before they are fully destroyed

  5. THE EVIL POLITIANS RUINING EVERYONE N THING. AMERICA THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY ON EARTH. SUCH A GREAT MACHINE.ALL THE HARD WORK TO BUILD THAT BEAST ALL THE PEOPLE THAT DIED TO BUILD IT

  6. I love seeing all the equipment! I wasn’t Pennellville one day! I saw bucket that look like it could fit four of my razors inside it! And it was like attached to a chain to where they’re supposed to be a machine? The chain links where is big as my wheels and thicker than my frame on my pick up truck it was insane! Guy come up to talk to me and he’s like you’re not supposed to ride in here! I told him oh this is about as far as I made it. I just drove around off to the left there and then I noticed back and I’ve been sitting here for like a half an hour just looking at this thing! He looked a bit confused!

  7. I work at an underground mine they government keeps telling us they are going shut all the mines down. But in all Reality they can’t since there is NO replacement for fossil fuels to use for so many different things they make from it. Where I live we don’t get enough sunlight all day long to run even sidewalk lites all night . Solar panels are a joke I can’t generate enough power for the grid to to power everybody. Coal,oil & gas powers the World
