Thank you for the helping hand Cat 966f to finally get the pictures up. I am only new to the forum and still learning the "ways of the force" to post pictures. I have spent all my life working with mining, both surface and underground as well as heavy haulage equipment. I have collected some great shoots over the years to share.

Welcome to the forum BAH, I hope you stick around to post many more shots, they are excellent pictures. I especially like the shot of the D475 near the bucket...

For posting pictures here, you just place the Image 'tags' either side of the address of the image..... so you type as shown below...

Nice looking brute.
Maybe the 'WS' versions were designed this way, (don't recall) but I have to say that that's an interesting boom configuration........house too.
At the very first glance, I thought "that's not a 2570w at all".

Beauty machine.

The house and revolving frame are larger on the 2570WS than the 2570W machines. As far as boom type goes, the later 2570W machines had trapezoidal type booms like this machine, rather than the twin triangular boom.

Great pictures BAH, thanks for sharing them with us. Does anybody else see the irony in the P&H crane being used to erect the Bucyrus dragline?
