I know its not farm equipment, but this is the installation of an Allis Chalmers crusher from back in the early 50's. This is at "Stoneport" which is part of Holcim which is a swiss company. This is NOT Calcite, one of largest open pit limestone quarries in the world in Rogers City, MI, but a smaller quarry located in Presque Isle, a few miles south off of US 23. The plant is still in operation, as is the crusher.
