104 Year Old Steam Shovel Working 104-летняя паровая лопата работает
This 1915 Erie steam shovel was purchased by Statford Barn Railway in 2012 from Canada. It was then overhauled to its original condition. Replacement components were all manufactured by Statford engineering workshops.
To operate this steam shovel you need a driver, fireman, banksman and a water-coal boy.
The shovel can move 500 cubic yards per day using 1 tonne of coal and 3000 gallons of water. It was stated in 1915 that this type of shovel did the same work as 30 men with 10 horses and wagons.
The company name was originally the Bell Engineering Co formed in approximately 1910 and producing hundreds of small shovels. It then became the Erie Steam Shovel Co; this merger filled the gap of small excavators Bucyrus didn’t produce. Steam production ceased in 1935 and from this time on the power was either petrol or diesel; of course Bucyrus continued on producing very large steam shovels for many years after as large internal combustion engines were not available.
