Since FiatAllisHD41 posted the Kirow equipement I thought I'd start a thread on Steel Mill Equipment.

All of these pictures are not mine and credit goes to the original owners.

Nice pictures, a lot of good times remembered.

The thing I remember the most was how alien everything in a steel mill was at first , there was nothing to compare to out in the rest of the world.

when you see a machine drive away with 40+ ton , just pick it up and get on with it , it was very impressive
