Ein weiteres Ausstellkungsstück im The Big Hole Museum ist diese Dampfwalze.
Dank Google habe ich mittlerweile folgende Infos:

Steam Ploughing Engine - John Fowler no 12095 (built in 1908/1909)

This Steam Ploughing Engine forms part of the display at the mine museum, and was one of the machines used to harrow the "blue" on the "Floors".

John Fowler works no 12100 was built in 1909. No 12095 therefore is likely to also have been built in 1909.

John Fowler's ploughing (or harrowing) system used a steam engine on one side of the field and an "anchor" on the other side. Between them they pulled the plough or harrow across the field by a cable. This arrangement of keeping the engine at the side of the field solved the problem of the heavy steam engine compacting the soil.
