The Institute of Quarrying is advertising an event happening across June and September which will allow you to go and see the largest preserved walking dragline excavator in Western Europe.
The excavator is located at St Adians Opencast Coal Site (Swillington, Leeds, LS26 8AL) and has a 25 cubic yard bucket! If just seeing this behemoth isn't enough to tempt you, how about getting the chance to sit in the driver's seat?
There are three dates on which your visit can happen:
- Saturday, 14th June
- Saturday, 13th September
- Sunday, 14th September
In all cases admission is free and will happen at both 2pm and 4pm. There's also working models, DVDs, and displays to look at while you're there.
If you are interested in going, please get in touch with Paul C Thompson on 07889 285634
