Gday,
Can verify that wire over the power line tale. Our club is beside and
surrounded by open cut coal mines. Mine built the power line long after
club commenced operation. Wire fell across power line as stated, set
fire to coal heap. Probably found it cheaper to give us the loan to
obtain the Pawnee. Another club without such neighbours snapped up our
double drum winch and are still using it.
Cheers
Henell-NSW-Australia
