German open-pit mine train
An LEW-type EL 3 electric locomotive is at the lead of a train of ore cars being loaded in an open-pit mine in Germany in 1982. Note that the locomotive has three pantographs at different angles so the overhead wire can be strung to prevent other mine equipment or loads from touching it.
