Version 1.
There are already some awesome Power Loaders out there like those from Larry Lars and ninbendo.
I wanted to have a go and try to get a small scale loader close to the one used by Ripley. The leg mod allows for a small amount of articulation.

Classic Plastic at the Bijou Planks...
🎶🎸🎹🎻🎵
🎶🎤 I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me 🎵
🎶🎤 Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone 🎵
🎶🎤 Well, I really don't mind the rain
And a smile can hide all the pain
But you're down when you're ridin' the train
That's takin' the long way
And I dream of the things I'll do
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
There'll be a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me 🎵
🎶🎤 Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone 🎵
🎶🎤 Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo 🎵
🎶🎤 Like a rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know.... 🎵

Yet another view, farther upstream, of the enormous GKM coal-fired power plant in Mannheim. Tennessee Ernie Ford told us that was impressive daily production for one underpaid coal mine worker, long ago. Wouldn’t be surprised if this hopper has comparable capacity.
Didn’t see any 🎼 Mannheim Steamrollers 🎶. 😜

In perfectly still conditions during the afternoon of 16 January 2016, the driver has full control of his locomotive, JS 8167, and its thirteen wagon trailing load as it makes a text book departure, the locomotive climbing positively away from the Sandaoling opencast mine loading point. There is alleged to be four more years worth of coal in the deep pit beyond the loaders, but how long the steam traction can continue without heavy maintenance equipment in the workshops remains to be seen.

In this image a wide load construction truck is hugging his side of the road, as we do the same on our side. As you can see, there is not a lot of pavement on either side, and no shoulders. It makes for an exciting trip.
This is on the so called; Glenn "Highway", where the speed limit was upped to 65 miles per hour a few years ago, by our legislator's in Juneau. No one in their right mind would do 65 on this stretch of the road.

UP 5566 and its train of hoppers crawl under the coal tipple at the Black Thunder West Mine, loading up on another load of "Black Diamonds" for a utility customer. This is but one of the numerous coal loading's that take place multiple times a day throughout the Powder River Basin.

Long time no see! Warming up myself by doing some simple builds, and this is one of the projects I always wanted to do: a bucket loader to complete my construction site series! It is a challenge to redo everything on my own, and I took some inspiration from others on the cockpit part. The loader arm is not easy at all, taking me nearly 2 weeks to make it right and work like the real life loader with the same mechanism.
Beefing up the dump truck a little bit from 60075, now the bucket loader has a match work partner. As a bonus, a little red digger to speed up the site progress!
