Antique industrial mining ore cart “the dynamite car” in original red paint. This is a true one of a kind … more Antique industrial mining ore cart “the dynamite car” in original red paint. This is a true one of a kind piece of history and as far as we can tell there is not another like it anywhere, on any platform. Could be repurposed as a small trolley or train ride for small children, used as outside decor, interior bar cart, a striking conversation piece that without a doubt would be a wonderful addition to any serious collection. Chassis constructed of heavy duty iron train car rollers on two axles, thick angle iron, c channel, and heavy steel plate, top box of steel plate and solid pine as an obvious precaution to lessen the possibility of a static discharge building up enough to cause a sudden spark. The box is divided in two sections by doug-fir timbers, the dynamite boxes were said to have been placed in the larger compartment towards the rear, blasting caps were stored to the front. Acquired as surplus from the collection of a private museum, and was only released due to the fact that this car had came without the standard locking wood and iron banded top cap. This cart was said to have come from a mine in somewhere South Dakota, we may be able to get more specifics in the future, but no more information is available at this time. Chassis seem to be late 1800s, top box more likely early twentieth century. The only other example we’ve been able to locate was found at the “Argo” mine in Idaho Springs, CO. Piece is “as found” runs on any standard track and still rolls surprising well, however it should be noted that this is a heavy piece of industrial equipment, and will need to be chain strapped and towed when moving on softer ground. Circa late 1800s, Black Hills South Dakota mine, USA.
