More power to my mineing brothers.i am a coal miner 18years under ground all face time. I run a 265 lee Norris at Merry Helen. Use to be bow valley or great western I love it. Got hurt and had to come out. I miss it most of all I miss my buddys. They are all about gone now. Iv got black lung can't do anything much but if I had it to do over I do it again. I started working in 76 at cranks Creek. Then 3point then all over Harlan county. Thanks for sharing and thanks for letting me share a few old memories. Keep your powder dry. Stay safe.

Great video. I worked underground in Harlan county form 1971 to 1984. We first started using epoxy roof-bolts about 1972 in the Low Splint seam. This technology changed mining. I left mining before the remote control continuous miner were introduced. This again changed underground mining for the better. Keep up the good work!

I've been on a roof bolter for 9 years wv coal miner but my hats off to the bolt man in the beginning of video fucking slick brother

Hell yeah boys I'm a miner from southern Illinois keep it up brothers

My old man put in 20 years as a shuttle car driver & scoop operator at Mary Helen for Bow Valley/Great Western/New Horizons.
