Garnet, a historic mining ghost town located in west-central Montana, sits at an elevation of about 6,000 feet at the head of First Chance Creek. It was named after the brown garnet rock, which was used as an abrasive and a semi-precious stone found in the area. The town dates back to 1895. Garnet endures along with the spirits of the rugged gold miners and their families who carved a community in the heart of the Garnet Mountain Range at the end of the nineteenth century. In 1898, some 1,000 people knew Garnet as home. Garnet offers a wonderful ghost town experience without commercialization. The town never had a bonanza strike but still serves as one of Montana's most impressive ghost towns.
I was so sad ..it was raining when we got here & then we were a half hour late to tour the buildings, they were all locked up ...dang..I still got some shots when the rain would let up off & on, while we were there !

I built this quite sometime ago, it was shortly after the first Power Miners sets were released whenever that was.
Anyway those sets inspired me to make this. I have never really built a wheeled vehicle before and I think its decent for a first try, though I will admit the blade on the front looks tacked on.
And a little tid bit you might like to know is the upper chassis is seperate from the axle/wheel assembly.

GHH mining machine underground shovel, when they were introduced in the Monteponi mine, helped to make the work lighter and faster. He wouldn't mind seeing it displayed in a protected area and not exposed to the elements. A machine created to work indoors that ends its "career" outdoors. The most interesting part are the reinforcements made by hand welding along the entire profile of the blade of the shovel. Although not a certainly functional artistic work; this is proof of the mastery and skills that the staff had acquired in working in a mine like this.
Pala da sottosuolo GHH mining machine, quando vennero introdotte nella miniera di Monteponi aiutarono a rendere il lavoro più leggero e veloce. Non sabbe male vederla esposta in una zona protetta e non esposta alle intemperie. Una macchina che nasce per lavorare al chiuso che finisce al sua "carriera" all'aria aperta. La parte più interessante sono i rinforzi realizzati con saldatura a mano lungo tutto il profilo della lama della pala. Seppure non un lavoro artistico sicuramente funzionale; questo a riprova della maestria e delle competenze che il personale aveva acquisito nel lavorare in una miniera come questa.
