In this video, a Ruston No. 4 Dragline cleans a canal in Central England. After the Ruston-Bucyrus merger in 1930, the No. 4 Dragline, with a 1/2 cu. yd. capacity, was the only model from the original Ruston line to stay in production. This archived footage was compiled, narrated and produced by Keith Haddock for the Historical Construction Equipment Association.
