Most of the equipment was gone. Perhaps this compressor remained 'cause they could not pry it off that slab of concrete. Or maybe there's no salvage value. Either way, I appreciate it being there.
4 stage compressor for air. Manufactured at DEMAG in the 60s. Freshly overhauled it still runs today....

a well built little unit, all cast iron but no tag to see who made it probably made in the 20s, 30s or 40s made like a real compressor not these aluminum oliless cheap ones made now. i saw one on the web listed as montgomery ward but still have no idea who built it i think it is a kellogg i saw one very similar in a book
I found this compressor mounted on the bed of a pickup truck. It made me laugh so I had to photograph it.
It is one of my favorite photography places here. I should have taken it with a little clearer lens.
I was going to look after the parade of the summer festival on that day, but left it while I drank beer.

ここはぼくの好きな撮影場所の一つです。 もう少し鮮明なレンズで撮るべきだったかもしれません。
この日は夏祭りのパレードを見る予定でしたが、ビールを飲んでいるうちにそれを忘れました。

Mackay's Mine Hill is the most significant part of the Alder Creek Mining District. Ore was first discovered in 1879, meaning full production began in 1884, and ore was mined into the 1980s. Almost a million tons of ore have been removed over the years, yielding about 42,000 oz. of gold, 2,000,000 oz. of silver, 62,000,000 lbs. of copper, 15,000,000 lbs. of lead, and 5,000,000 lbs. of zinc. Geological sampling still occurs, and mining could be renewed at any time to withdraw the millions of dollars of ore remaining in the ground.

2 cylinder electric powered air compressor on Australia Level, which supplied power for drills and other machinery in the quarry.
The Roystone Grange limestone quarry was developed around the time of the First World War and by 1920 was using compressed air drills to assist in extracting the stone. This compressor house to supply the air was erected some distance away where there was a spring that supplied water to cool the oil engines and compressors. The structure has been secured and the roof is sound but it stands empty and unused.
Struck by a run-away tire, Mr. Compressor lies in wait of assistance.
I found this while out for a walk, quite unexpectedly. And, by sheer coincidence, We're Here looking for unexpected objects in unexpected places. I think it was unexpected by Mr. Compressor also!

Deep in the well which once held a compressor wheel at the Mohawk #6 hoist house. Closer up, it looks like this.
