1915 1T Monighan Walking Dragline

[9W Monighan]

A friend of mine has aquired after many years of trying to convince the owner to part with this old Monighan. As far as we know,it's the oldest walking dragline in the world. Over Thanksgiving a bunch of guys headed out to Attica,Iowa to retrieve this relic.




This picture was sent as work began. I don't have any of the loading out pictures yet but hope to get some.


I took these after it had arrived back home here in Pennsylvania.
I am going to make a few cad drawings of the parts for future reference if I ever have the urge to build a scale model.
