This is one of about 20 “old” trucks frozen in place from the day the mine shut down many years ago.

The mine has been in mothballs for over 30 years and the back yard had a dozen old trucks I assume resting for the same amount of time.

I love these old trucks. Each has a history of work and now is rusting from season to season.
