I don't comment all the time but I just want you to know that I watch all your videos and truly appreciate all the work you do to bring these places to us. Fantastic. Love them. ❤️
Ahhh thanks Cynthia! Much appreciated 🙋🏻♂️🙏🏼 Antonio x
even if he is not videoing, its hard to keep him out of these places. he also lives in a basement. so its like a home from home.
I actually travelled down this incline in the man-rider car in 1972. The incline was worked by electric motors rather than gravity. In the boarded-up winding house were three barrels; one for each track. These will filled with brine and then a steel plate dipped in and out of the brine to control the motors. Back in 1972 the mine was working, and the sound of multiple generators and compressors running filled the caverns.
Wow thanks very much for the historical information ! 🙋🏻♂️🙏🏼😄
@kwallace6uk.You are spot on,this was never a balance incline.Motor driven.And initially there were 4 set of tracks on this incline.I was one of the last drivers to operate this incline😀
I was there last weekend. Need to go back and spend more time in there.
Where is this? Have you got coordinates please.
Very well done - and thank you for the respect you show and exemplify to the many who watch this. We've got a brush ready for our next trip - some more vandalism has appeared since. Respect is all we ask for.
Thanks John ! 😀🙋🏻♂️🙏🏼
beautiful scenery, thanks guys for sharing your amazing adventures :)
Absolutely epic, respect to those miners.
Hi Antonio, another fantastic underground explore, Chris is so knowledgeable about these slate mines, they really worked hard back in the day.
When you think they only had candles to light the area where they worked, it must have been very scary with all of the machine noise and other
sounds of blasting and loading up the ore carts. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💖
Thanks Sue ! Yes Chris is very knowledgeable ,thanks to his exploring the slate mines in his area and knowing people in the slate trade !
Antonio that mine their is an amazing place to see how they worked it and one I would love to be able to see in person myself here that was just very cool now and thanks for sharing it with us all too
The winder at this mine had a steam engine followed by an electric motor. Gravity would not work, lowering empty waggons and hauling full.
Looks like three phase salt-water variable resistance, as used in early theatre lighting dimmers. Pretty scary to think of all that live mechanism exposed!
Your content is amazing!!
I love that crunchy sound
Wow that’s a huge area you could spend a week in there!
I know what you mean about the modern Graffiti it’s just Vandalism pure & simple & has no place in those areas. Well done on having a go at removing it. Can’t wait for part 2 👍🏼
good job wow 🤩🤩🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome content. I work in an underground mine in Australia and thought a word of caution is warranted here. There is nothing worse than someone who consistently shines lights in people's faces. First thing you get taught as a miner is to use your hand a shield to narrow the beam when people are in front of you. Otherwise, great work mate.
Thanks ! Great bit of Advice ! 🙋🏻♂️🙏🏼
Amazing video
Awesome mine and video
Fantastic video!
My favorite team of mine explorers all in one place. This location is a favorite of mine.
Glad to hear your a fan of Durhamexplorerz, Shonky Tours and Richie Wellock !😀👌🏼🔦🎥
@@UndergroundExplorerUK Antonio, you introduced me to these other guys and I’m watching all of their videos.
@@TheRopeAddict Thanks Joseph we loved the place too. all 6 hours of it underground.
Amazing bro 👍
That bottle looked like a camp coffee bottle Kev.
my home town 👌🏴
Could you tell me which quarry this is please?
Have you heard of Ghost Town Living here in CZcams?? Brent bought a ghost town with a mine in Cerro Gordo, California. The mineshafts seem endless and the place has such rich history!
Yes I follow him ! It’s amazing what he is doing ⛏️❤️
Hello brothers
Yes Antonio, I went in November to this absolute beauty of a mine and what an epic adventure it was. I'm going back again in February for my birthday with my gang the Derbyshire mole's, I can't wait hahaha
I explored the slate mine at Penmachno last November. What mine is this if you don't mind? I would love to go on a tour of this mine as well.
Please visit with respect. Far too many people are leaving rubbish and graffitiing since the post-pandemic inrush. Also note that the usual dressing sheds level accessway has now been blocked by the owner (but is still accessible via alternative routes).
And here's another one that thinks I'm going all the way to Wales to destroy the beauty of it and leave rubbish everywhere, how nice of you to assume that I'm that kind of a person with no respect for places like this at all.
@@ashleywildsmith5657 I have always treated these national treasures with the utmost respect and the idea of littering anywhere is abhorrent. I think if you care enough to watch these videos it's a silly assumption to think we need telling to be respectful.
@JayeOFarrell Did you ever find out the name of this mine? Location etc
Hogia Stiniog.
Is this in Machynlleth? I would love this tour. Its absolutely wonderfully. Thank you!
This place is sacred to me.
Which mine is this? Looks incredible
Maenofferen 👌🏼⛏️
I. M love you🤟🤟
What’s the yellow colouring on the roof as you enter the mine?
Could be sulphur
저런데 탐험해보고 싶긴 하네
Thanks for the video, I’d like to joint you❤

Love this video! Do you take an oxygen meter for these explorations?
I will take O2 meter depending on the type of mine we do , in this particular one we didn’t need it as Slate doesn’t give off any gas
@UndergroundExplorerUK Looks epic. May I ask what is the name of this mine please. Recently explored a few chambers at cwmorthin slate mine and quarry.
The incline was not gravity powered, it was steam powered, hense the giant pile of coal waste next to it.
Ok thanks for the clarification ! 😀🙏🏼
@@UndergroundExplorerUK Owens dad and grandfather all worked in this mine. His grandfather drove the Eimco

Are there any men still alive who worked in this mine?
Yes there is a few !

Miles deep? If the incline started on the summit of Snowdon and went down to sea level , then it would be 1km deep ...however, it does not. Foolish thumbnail !
