10Turkeys Report post Posted July 9, 2019 Some kind of an ore bucket? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
300RUM Report post Posted July 9, 2019 Some mines that use Narrow Gauge rail used to have a piece of equipment that was sometimes called a mucker. Kind of like a little Bobcat with no driver's seat. It could go to the end of the rail, scoop up debris from the last blast and lift it up and over itself into an ore cart that was behind it. I've seen a few with buckets that kind of resemble that one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
