tail rope การใช้

• Bronte then made it up to the tail rope, and tried to untie it without a glove on, but once she untied it, she dropped her glove.
• From Prospect Hill to Percy Main and from Percy Main to the staiths the loaded wagons ran by gravity, unwinding as they descended a tail rope from the drum of the engine, to bring hack the empty wagons.
• This was the dominant system in the 1880s Frequently, one engine was used to work both ropes, with the tail rope reaching into the mine, around a pulley at the far end, and then out again.
• In mines where grades were not uniform or where the grades were not steep enough for gravity to pull a train into the mine, the main hoisting rope could be augmented with a tail rope connected to the opposite end of the train of mine cars.
• Later improvements include a Main and Tail Rope Haulage installation to bring coal to the surface, and a self acting skip incline ( that is, empty skips hauled up to the mine by the descending loaded skips ) to transport the coal to the foot of the mountain at what is now Gooyong Street Keiraville
