It operated in southeastern Ohio from 1969 to 1991. It was the largest machine ever to move on land. The 220 cubic yard bucket could hold two full size buses.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,002 reviews)
Breakfast always tastes amazing. Always a clean place. Only thing check out is at noon but if you leave the room and come back at 11 they already have it cleaned before you check out so don’t leave the room they will start knocking very early to see if you left yet.
