The Cat DW20's were replaced with this newer,
and larger, Euclid Coal Hauler.
Haven't been able to find a model number on these.
These haulers carried the equivalent of a rail car full of coal


Exposed Coal Seam, ready for the Shovels to move in
and load into the haulers.

Disclaimer
Most of the Utility Coals pictures
unless shown as taken by Marjorie Turton,
 are from a Mannix Company, Employee Magazine,
titled "The Mannix Story"
I didn't see no copyright remarks, in any of the issues,
so I am using them here, for all to see.
If by chance they are copyright pictures,
please notify me, and I will remove them ASAP.
Being of historical nature,
and I am not charging for their viewing,
I hope I have not violated any legal rights etc.
I also hope some of the old miners enjoy them!

in 1980 the Mine Manager was Wayne Kelly
