We see a very large mechanical excavator being used to extract iron ore from an open cast mine in Northamptonshire. The machine is a Ransome and Rapier dragline excavator operated by Stewarts and Lloyds Minerals Ltd.
Reporter Gwyn Richards is seen walking towards the machine (emphasising its size).
Inside the cab Richards interviews the operator Neville (no surname) about his job.
