'The Mountaineer,60 cubic yard shovel: the Mountaineer is the world's largest shovel; it is the largest unit of mobile land machinery ever constructed in this country. It will be used to remove earth and rock overburden, with a maximum average of 90 feet in depth (under favorable contour conditions, the machine will be able to go to a top maximum of 120 feet of overburden), from the 4 1/2 foot Pittsburgh coal seam in Eastern Ohio. Although the four large machines which Hanna has had in service for several years at its open-cut mines are among the largest ever built, they are not capable of removing overburden averaging as much as 90 feet in depth. The Mountaineer makes possible the recovery of millions of tons of coal not recoverable with the smaller machines.'

'Fifty-five ton tractor trailer units at Bradford No. 1 Mine near Cadiz, Ohio: Coal from the Bradford open-cut mine is loaded into 55-ton trator-trailer trucks to be transported to the Georgetown Preparation Plant where it is washed, dried and sized. Thes tractor-trailer trucks are powered by 400 H.P. Deisel V-12 engines. They have a rated capacity approximately equal to that of a railroad car (55-tons). The overall length of this unit is 55 feet. It is 12 feet in width and at its highest point, is 11 1/2 feet from the ground. The front tires on these units are 14:00 x 24. The rear tires on the tractor and the tires on the trailer are 18:00 x 25. These tractor-trailer units are lubricated while in operation by an electrically-times, automatically-controlled lubricating system, which lubricates each of the 63 bearings once each operating hour. Similar but slightly smaller capacity trucks are in use at the Georgetown No. 12 Mine. The coal is loaded, without being shot, by electric shovels having dippers of 9 cubic yards capacity.'
