Just got word that the dragline that sat half a mile southeast of Eckley Miners Village is being/has been scrapped. What's next on the chopping block?

Its not a complete loss quit a bit of it is going to be used for spare parts for the other 7400's in the area

That 's the one I thought, The Bucyrus-Monaghan near it disappeared a few years ago, I think they scrapped it when they pushed the pit in. not sure though. The marion had dropped it's boom [accidently] and a new one was built on it on site.....the old smashed boom used to lay close to where the 7400 was parked.
Is the 190B shovel still on the other road ?
