Watt Mine Car Drawing and Photos

None of these images are of my own. I came across them on Facebook, on the American Industrial Mining Company Page. Their
post on 1/9/16 read: The Watt Mine Car restoration project kicked off our first project for 2016 ! ! !
This car was purchased new for the Dessecker Coal Mine in Ohio in 1961. The mine used a total of 12 of these cars each with a
2 ton capacity. We will update as the project progresses. Very exciting to see this operating again at the May show.

Some of the measurements on the drawing are difficult to read; you could either extrapolate them from other dimensions, or
contact the American Industrial Mining Company for a better resolution image.

The work shown in the photos is that the group used a torch to remove bolts from the wood. The metal portion of the car will
be cleaned and preserved, with new wood installed at a later date.

Please use this information in a wise and professional manner.
