8 tonne battery loco and granby cars

These were used on 12 level to haul ore from slushers and Atlas Copco "boggers" (loaders) to the grizzly over the main ore pass where they would be automatically unloaded by means of the outrigger wheel running up over a ramp. 10 level used smaller 5 tonne locos and single granby cars unloaded by shackling down and pushing over by a hydraulic ram.

This is actually a similar 8t loco and wagons at New Broken Hill - NBHC
