It does appear the pantograph is down.
Enlarging the pix, looks like their is a smaller wire that is in contact.
The large wires appear to be too high for the pantograph to reach, even if they extend
the pantograph some more.
BTW what is the large red digit display facing the camera, opposite the operators cab ? it appears to be reading "210"
I did check it out on the copper Mt stack stuff and there is a video there showing this truck passing another haul truck at twice the speed. The big wire we see in the picture is the big supply line not the trolley wires. this trolley system has cut 3 minutes off the trip coming out of the pit and fuel saving is huge.. Hope to figure out how to post the video.
