In addition to the 8950, Ayrshire Mine also had a Bucyrus 3270. There were two 3270s built, the one at Ayrshire and the other at Delta Mine in So IL. The 3270s were the second largest draglines ever to be built. They carried a 176 cubic yard bucket on a 330' boom.

Here is a pic of both Ayrshire machines. They were fed by 25KV AC power. The trail cable feeding the 8950 is in the foreground.
