Comment on this review.

This DVD is presented by Steven Vale and is a PAL video in English.  It is published by T&V Films and this DVD is the second in a series of 'Earthmoving Trails', and follows on from the previous release,  'A Dutch River Journey'.

This time a number of mines are visited across Northern Spain as well as a breaker's yard and a museum.

A feature of the DVD is the large number of machines filmed.  These include a large variety of mining and earthworks related equipment, including the large Liebherr R 9350 and Hitachi EX5500, and other machines from Liebherr, Hitachi and Caterpillar, and also some older Demags. The filming includes most of the machines at work, and a few interviews with site managers, with some English sub-titling.

The overall production value of this DVD seems better than the first DVD in the series, and there is good quality filming and recording of the machine sounds.  There is plenty of content at around two hours overall length, and it is focussed on the equipment and the mines.

This DVD builds upon the first in the series and using the same easy pace it provides a good way to see many different machines in action.
