A train-Load in a day! Each of these sixteen miners, seen above, with the pit Deputy
A train-Load in a day! Each of these sixteen miners, seen above, with the pit Deputy, shifted more than 200 times his weight in coal in one day - they smashed the output record for their seam, and probably created a record for the country, producing 288 tons. In one month the sixteen " strippers" produced 6, 624 tons of coal machine-cut and hand-shovelled. June 1945 P007973

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the coal mining era of the 1940s. In this remarkable image, we witness a group of sixteen miners proudly posing alongside their pit Deputy, showcasing their incredible achievement. These hardworking men have just shattered the output record for their seam by collectively producing an astonishing 288 tons of coal in a single day! The determination and strength displayed by these miners are truly awe-inspiring. Each miner alone managed to shift more than 200 times his own weight in coal within just twenty-four hours. Their unwavering dedication has not only set a new benchmark for their seam but quite possibly for the entire country as well. In addition to this extraordinary feat, it is worth mentioning that over the course of one month, these sixteen "strippers" managed to produce an astounding total of 6,624 tons of coal through both machine-cutting and hand-shoveling techniques. This photograph encapsulates the essence of an industry that relied on sheer manpower and resilience. The sight of these men wearing flat caps against a backdrop filled with railway tracks symbolizes not only their contribution to fueling transportation but also highlights the arduous nature of their work. As we delve into this snapshot from June 1945, we are reminded once again about the indomitable spirit exhibited by those who labored tirelessly underground in order to power our world forward.
