Mounting the pit cages !

 

Mounting the pit cages in shaft 2 !


Here you can watch the miners mounting the pit cages inside the Lohberg 2 shaft. At the bottom of the photo you can see the shaft's wall made of bricks and the vertical bars that are mounted in order to keep the pit cages stable during their way up and down the shaft.

Special thanks to Arno Hoffmann for sending me the CD with the photos. If the - pitily unknown - photographer does not want the pictures to be published here, please send me an e-mail.
