they had to drain the old strip pits with high walls because of drownings. it's a shame the fishing used to be great.

no, it sits between Caldwell and McConnelsville on rt.78 off of I77. it is now AEP recreational lands.

I got to see it operate in the 60's. usually it was off limits to the public along with the haul roads because of tnt blasting zones. their used to be miles of coal conveyer belts that ran to the power house that has since been demolished. after big muskie was demolished they ran 2 ninety nine coal car trains per day to the power house. it's all just a memory now, shame.

thank you Chris!!

on display is all that remains of the world's largest dragline, is the strip mining bucket. known as the big muskie operated by central ohio coal company. it is located in s.e. ohio on scenic state route 78. the stairs in the photo give an idea the scale of the teeth and volume of the bucket. the rest of the equiptment was disassembled and sold as scrap metal. when operational it walked to mine locations.
