In Episode 12, Tony resurrects an old locomotive to help him move his gold, only to see it immediately go off the tracks. Turns out the operator wasn’t trained properly.
In the last episode, titled “Frankdozer’, it was the middle of summer, and Motch needed a large dozer to clear his cut by the end of the week. His plan was to travel back in time to spring and start assembling one dozer from three nonworking ones. But it breaks down just as soon as it gets put into service due to an aftermarket hydraulic filter. So they fixed it with a non-aftermarket hydraulic filter, and a cleanup found 240.6 oz.
Though still mining the bacon strip, Rick opens a new cut after a test pan finds bits. While clearing the new ground, the tracks come off Rick’s Dozer, Buzz fixes it. Then the tracks come off Rick’s Dozer again, and Buzz fixes it again.
Gold Rush Season 14 Episode 11 Recap
Before diving into Gold Rush Season 14 Episode 12, let’s quickly recap and review the previous episode. You know, watching things continually flying off the tracks is becoming quite the metaphor for this entire show. The gold weight is 32.56 oz.
Remember earlier in the season when they put in a culvert to fix a flooded access road to their Indian River cut? They do it again on the same road using the same culvert. Supposedly, it’s due to another miner’s flooded cut somewhere upstream.
In a weird, utterly pointless scene, Tony has a dramatic face-to-face meeting with Parker and demands he divert some of the water that isn’t his, and he has no control over it. Then Tony just drives away before there is any resolution. You don’t want to show full of scenes that have no purpose and make no sense. This one is pretty high on the list. Speaking of things with no purpose, an entirely too slow gold pore finds 161.94 oz.
Parker is on the verge of bankruptcy and, in case you weren’t reminded lately, is opening a new cut on a new claim on Australia Creek. However, a trailer once used as a bridge is in the way of their access to the claim.
After much consternation, they came up with a solution: move the trailer. They also had to drive a pump across the Creek, which was both breathtakingly boring and unnervingly unnecessary. Meanwhile, at the Dominion cut, they are clearing overburden, and then chaos happens.
You see, there is a driver and a sleeved shirt driving a fully loaded truck without broken windows, reporting it is making a weird noise, but the fire shots show it’s not a noise that’s the issue, but the billowing plumes of smoke everywhere coming out of a now empty truck.
Except that smoke is never seen when we switch back to the driver, who is still only complaining about a noise. A lot more happened in previous episodes, but now let’s discuss when Episode 12 of Gold Rush Season 14 will be released and what will happen in it.
