Very powerful, particularly the contrast between how these communities were so entrenched with a single purpose then, but now a few decades all traces have been obliterated. ![[Image: ex-mine.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/ex-mine.jpg) ![[Image: ex-mine2.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/ex-mine2.jpg) ![[Image: ex-mine3.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/ex-mine3.jpg) ![[Image: ex-mine4.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/ex-mine4.jpg) Rejects: - Karrier truck and ambulance ![[Image: 10-07karrier.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/10-07karrier.jpg) ![[Image: 31-41karrrieramb.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/31-41karrrieramb.jpg) - Minor (  ) van and Rapier (S3)![[Image: 29-57minor.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/29-57minor.jpg) ![[Image: 11-06rapier.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/11-06rapier.jpg) - Triumph 2000 Mk2 and one of a stream of blurred strike-breaking coal trucks in a convoy - all same/similar ![[Image: 34-37tr2000.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/34-37tr2000.jpg) ![[Image: 37-31truck.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/37-31truck.jpg) |
