                       ITEM 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. In the opinion of Bucyrus International, Inc. (the "Company"), the
   consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
   (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the
   financial results for the interim periods.  Certain items are included in
   these statements based on estimates for the entire year.  

2. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from
   these interim consolidated condensed financial statements.  Therefore,
   these statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1996
   annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
   Commission on March 20, 1997.

3. Inventories consist of the following:

                                        March 31,      December 31,
                                          1997             1996

4. Net earnings per share of common stock for the quarter ended March 31,
   1997 is based on the weighted average number of common and common
   equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  Restricted common stock
   is considered to be issued and outstanding and is included in the net
   earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method.  Net
   earnings per share of common stock for the quarter ended March 31, 1996
   is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
   since common stock equivalents were not significant.

   The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of
   Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share".  The
   Company will adopt this statement for the year ending December 31, 1997
   and will restate prior period earnings per share as required.  Adoption
   of this statement will not have an impact on the Company's reported
   earnings per share for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

                BUCYRUS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   The following information is provided to assist in the understanding of
Bucyrus International, Inc's. (the "Company") operations for the quarters
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   Working capital and current ratio are two financial measurements which
provide an indication of the Company's ability to meet its short-term
obligations.  These measurements at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were
as follows:

                                   March 31,      December 31,
                                     1997             1996    
                                      (Dollars in Thousands)

   Working capital                 $ 80,110         $ 78,814
   Current ratio                   2.7 to 1         2.9 to 1

   The decrease in the current ratio was primarily due to increased current
liabilities in order to support increased inventory levels in anticipation of
future machine sales.

   The table below summarizes the Company's cash position at March 31, 1997:

                                 Restricted       Unrestricted

   A portion of the unrestricted cash at the foreign subsidiaries is not
readily repatriatable because it is required for working capital purposes at
these respective locations.

   Equipment Assurance Limited has pledged $1,056,000 of its cash to secure
its reimbursement obligations for outstanding letters of credit at March 31,
1997.  This collateral amount is classified as Restricted Funds on Deposit in
the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

   The Company is presenting below a calculation of earnings before interest
expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock compensation and
(gain) loss on sale of fixed assets ("Adjusted EBITDA").  Since cash flow from
operations is very important to the Company's future, the Adjusted EBITDA
calculation provides a summary review of cash flow performance.  In addition,
the Company is required to maintain certain minimum Adjusted EBITDA levels
under its bank credit agreement (see below).  The Adjusted EBITDA calculation
is not an alternative to operating income under generally accepted accounting
principles as an indicator of operating performance or to cash flows as a
measure of liquidity.  The following table reconciles Earnings Before Income
Taxes to Adjusted EBITDA:

                                          Quarter Ended March 31,

   The Company has a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank
One, Wisconsin ("Bank One").  The Credit Agreement, as amended, contains a
credit facility for working capital and general corporate purposes (the "Loan
Facility"), a letter of credit facility (the "L/C Facility") and a project
financing loan facility (the "Project Financing Facility").  Under the Loan
Facility, the Company may borrow up to $2,500,000, provided that it meets
certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization tests,
as defined.  Borrowings under the Loan Facility mature on April 30, 1998. 
Under the L/C Facility, Bank One has agreed to issue letters of credit through
April 30, 1998 in an aggregate amount not in excess of $15,000,000 minus the
then outstanding aggregate borrowings by the Company under the Loan Facility,
provided that no letter of credit may expire after April 30, 1999.  Under the
Project Financing Facility, Bank One may make project financing loans to the
Company from time to time.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured
by a security interest on substantially all of the Company's property (other
than land and buildings).  At March 31, 1997, the Company had $368,000 of
borrowings outstanding under the Loan Facility and $6,658,000 of the L/C
Facility was being used.  Under the Project Financing Facility, the Company
has a line of credit for $13,000,000 to support four current orders.  Bank One
has participated a portion of the Project Financing Facility to The Bank of
Nova Scotia.  Availability is based on the amount of inventory being financed
and any accounts receivable relating to such project and was approximately
$5,100,000 at March 31, 1997.  There were no borrowings under the Project
Financing Facility at March 31, 1997.

   The agreements relating to the Secured Notes and the Credit Agreement
permit additional project financing from the lenders to manufacture mining
machinery or other products pursuant to binding purchase contracts.  Project
financing borrowings are secured by the inventory being financed and any
accounts receivable relating to such project.  Project financing borrowings
mature not later than the date of the final payment by the customer under the
applicable purchase contract.  At March 31, 1997, the Company had $4,861,000
of outstanding project financing borrowings not related to the Project
Financing Facility.  These borrowings are classified as Short-Term Obligations
in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

   The Company believes that current levels of cash and liquidity, together
with funds generated by operations, funds available from its Credit Agreement
and other project financing arrangements will be sufficient to permit the
Company to satisfy its debt service requirements and fund operating activities
for the foreseeable future.  The Company is subject to significant business,
economic and competitive uncertainties that are beyond its control. 
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company's financial resources
will be sufficient for the Company to satisfy its debt service obligations and
fund operating activities under all circumstances.

   At March 31, 1997, the Company had approximately $2,780,000 of open
approved capital appropriations.  Included in this amount is the remaining
$1,463,000 to be spent for a new service shop facility in Chile which is being
financed primarily with a local bank in Chile and the remaining $204,000 to be
spent for land and a new facility in South Africa.

   In addition, the Company has committed $5,500,000 of a potential
$20,000,000 machine shop tool modernization project.  The initial machine
tools have been leased and the remaining machine tools are expected to be
financed or leased.

CAPITALIZATION

   The long-term debt to equity ratio at March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996 was 1.7 to 1 and 1.8 to 1, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

   Net sales for the first quarter of 1997 were $59,886,000 compared with
$61,456,000 for the first quarter of 1996.  Sales of repair parts and services
were $37,392,000, which is a decrease of 6.2% from the first quarter of 1996. 
The decrease in repair parts and service sales was primarily at United States
locations.  Machine sales were $22,494,000, which is an increase of 4.1% from
the first quarter of 1996.  Sales of electric mining shovels increased 26.2%
and sales of blast hole drills decreased 27.1%.  The increase in electric
mining shovel volume was primarily in copper markets.  

Cost of Products Sold

   Cost of products sold for the first quarter of 1997 was $48,005,000 or
80.2% of net sales compared with $49,663,000 or 80.8% of net sales for the
first quarter of 1996.  The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily
due to improved machine margins.

Product Development, Selling, Administrative and Miscellaneous Expenses

   Product development, selling, administrative and miscellaneous expenses
for the first quarter of 1997 were $8,653,000 or 14.4% of net sales compared
with $8,935,000 or 14.5% of net sales for the first quarter of 1996.

Interest Expense

   Interest expense for the first quarter of 1997 was $1,914,000 compared
with $2,080,000 for the first quarter of 1996.  The Company has the option of
paying interest on the Secured Notes in cash at 10.5% or in kind (issuance of
additional Secured Notes) at 13%.  For the first quarter of 1997, interest was
accrued at 10.5% since the Company currently intends to pay this interest in
cash.  For the first quarter of 1996, interest was accrued at 13% since the
Company paid this interest in kind.  Interest was accrued on a higher
principal balance in 1997 since all interest paid to date has been paid in
kind.

Income Taxes

   Income tax expense consists primarily of foreign taxes at applicable
statutory rates.  

Net Earnings

   Net earnings for the first quarter of 1997 were $915,000 compared with 
$298,000 for the first quarter of 1996.  The increase in net earnings was
primarily due to an improved gross margin percentage, reduced product
development, selling, administrative and miscellaneous expenses and reduced
interest expense.

Backlog and New Orders

   The Company's consolidated backlog at March 31, 1997 was $160,155,000
compared with $158,727,000 at December 31, 1996 and $199,853,000 at March 31,
1996.  Machine backlog at March 31, 1997 was $44,924,000, which is a decrease
of 8.4% from December 31, 1996 and a decrease of 56.0% from March 31, 1996. 
The decrease in machine backlog from December 31, 1996 was in blast hole drill
volume.  The decrease in machine backlog from March 31, 1996 was in both
electric mining shovel and blast hole drill volume.  Repair parts and service
backlog at March 31, 1997 was $115,231,000, which is an increase of 5.0% from
December 31, 1996 and an increase of 18.0% from March 31, 1996.   

   New orders for the first quarter of 1997 were $61,314,000, which is a
decrease of 57.2% from the first quarter of 1996.  New machine orders were
$18,398,000, which is a decrease of 68.3% from the first quarter of 1996. 
During the first quarter of 1996, a multiple machine order was received from
one South American customer in the copper market resulting in new machine
orders substantially higher than historical levels in that quarter.  As a
result of a decline in copper prices in 1996 from historically high levels,
demand from this market segment has remained low.  However, due to a
resurgence in copper prices in late 1996, which the Company expects to
continue through 1997, there should be continued demand from this market
segment for electric mining shovels and blast hole drills.  There also was an
increase in iron ore production in late 1994 that was sustained through 1995
and 1996.  The Company anticipates that some iron ore producers will continue
to replace aged electric mining shovel and blast hole drill fleets with new
machines in an effort to reduce iron ore production costs.  Also, price
increases for hard coking coal in 1995 and 1996 have brought new demand for
machines in western Canada and Australia in recent months.  On April 16, 1997,
the Company announced that it has received a letter of intent from BHP Coal
Pty. Ltd. of Australia to purchase a 2570WS walking dragline.  The estimated
value of the contract is in excess of $61,000,000 ($80,000,000 Australian). 
The commercial sales contract is expected to be finalized in June, 1997.  New
repair parts and service orders of $42,916,000 returned to historical levels,
decreasing 49.7% from the first quarter of 1996.  Included in new repair parts
and service orders for the first quarter of 1996 were large maintenance and
repair contract orders at foreign locations.

PENDING ACQUISITION

   On April 8, 1997, the Company and Global Industrial Technologies, Inc.
("Global") announced that they have entered into a letter of intent for Global
to sell the assets of The Marion Power Shovel Company to the Company.  Subject
to Board of Director approval, both the Company and Global expect to sign a
definitive purchase and sale agreement by June 1, 1997.  See the Company's
Form 8-K dated April 11, 1997 for additional information.

     above such minimum), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
     this Agreement, to finance the construction of two Model 495-B1 Rope

                    (b)  Limitation on Advances:  The unpaid principal
     balance of Project Financing Note No. 6 shall not at any time prior to
     the delivery of the first shovel under the Alumbrera Contract exceed the
     lesser of (i) the Maximum Loan Amount or (ii) an amount equal to 60% of
     the cost (determined in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with
     the Company's historical accounting practices) of the work-in-process
     inventory comprising Project No. 6 minus 100% of the advance payments
     received from Alumbrera plus 100% of the Project Financing Reserve
     established from time to time pursuant to subsection (h) below.

               The unpaid principal balance of Project Financing Note No. 6

     Alumbrera Contract exceed the lesser of (x) the remaining amount to be
     paid under the Alumbrera Contract, (y) the Maximum Loan Amount or (z) an
     amount equal to 90% of "Qualified Alumbrera Receivables" plus 100% of
     the Project Financing Reserve plus 60% of the cost (determined in
     accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the Company's
     historical accounting practices) of the work-in-process inventory
     comprising Project No. 6 minus 100% of the advance payments received
     from Alumbrera.

               In addition to the limits in the two preceding paragraphs,
     the unpaid principal balance of Project Financing Note No. 6 shall not
     at any time exceed (1) prior to receipt by the Company of the $1,412,000
     advance payment scheduled to be paid in August 1997, an amount equal to
     the sum of 100% of Qualified Alumbrera Receivables plus 60% of the cost
     (determined in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the
     Company's historical accounting practices) of the work-in-process
     inventory comprising of Project No. 6 and (2) thereafter, the amount
     remaining to be paid to the Company under the Alumbrera Contract.

               "Qualified Alumbrera Receivables" means the aggregate amount
     (after deducting all downpayments, advance payments and retainage
     amounts owed by Minera Alumbrera Limited to the Company) which arose out
     of the sale of goods comprising Project No. 6 and which have been
     shipped by the Company in accordance with the applicable provisions of
     the Alumbrera Contract; provided, however, that if any amount owed by
     Alumbrera to the Company under the Alumbrera Contract is outstanding
     more than 30 days after the due date, then Qualified Alumbrera
     Receivables shall be $0.

                    (c)  Maturity Date:  The aggregate principal amount
     of Project Financing Note No. 6 and all accrued interest shall be due
     upon the first to occur of (i) the receipt by the Company of the final

                    (e)  Interest Payment Dates:  The last Business Day
     of each month and on the Maturity Date.

                    (f)  Commitment Fee:  As consideration for the
     commitment of the Bank to provide the Project Financing to the Company,
     the Company agrees to pay to the Bank on the last Business Day of each
     month, commencing March 31, 1997, and on the Maturity Date, a commitment
     fee equal to 1/4 of 1% per year on the difference between the Maximum
     Loan Amount and the daily average outstanding principal balance of
     Project Financing Note No. 6 during the preceding month or other
     applicable period.

                    (g)  Prepayment of Project Financing Note No. 6:  The
     Company may prepay Project Note No. 6 in whole or in part at any time
     upon two Business Days prior notice to the Bank.  The Company shall
     prepay Project Financing Note No. 6 immediately upon receipt (i) from
     the Bank of a notice (containing calculations in reasonable detail) to
     the effect that the outstanding principal balance of Project Financing
     Note No. 6 exceeds the limits set forth in subsection (b) above in an
     amount equal to such excess and (ii) of a payment by Alumbrera on the
     Alumbrera Contract in an amount equal to such payment.  Any principal
     prepayment shall first be applied to the amount, if any, of Project
     Financing Note No. 6 consisting of Reference Rate Loans and the balance
     to Libor Rate Loans.  Upon any principal prepayment of a Libor Rate
     Loan, the Company shall also pay accrued interest thereon and any amount
     due under section 2.14(c).

                    (h)  Project Financing Reserve:  For purposes of
     determining availability under subsection (b) above, the Project
     Financing Reserve shall equal the lesser of (i) the Maximum Loan Amount
     or (ii) the amount remaining to be paid to the Company under the
     Alumbrera Contract, minus the greater of (x) the amount available under
     subsection (b) above or (y) $0.  The Project Financing Reserve will be
     adjusted on each day on which the Company obtains an advance under, or
     makes a principal payment on, Project Financing Note No. 6 and upon
     receipt by the Bank of the financial information provided under section
     5.4(d).

                    For purposes of calculating the Project Financing
     Reserve under section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement, the aggregate Project
     Financing Reserve for Project Financing Loan Nos. 6, 7 and 8 shall equal
     the difference between (1) the aggregate availability for Project
     Financing Loan Nos. 6, 7 and 8 under sections 2.16(b)(vi)(b),
     2.16(b)(vii)(b) and 2.16(b)(viii)(b) and (2) the aggregate outstanding
     principal balances of Project Financing Note Nos. 6, 7 and 8, rounded up
     to the next highest $50,000 with a minimum aggregate Project Financing
     Reserve of $250,000.

                    (i)  Use of Proceeds:  The Company shall use the
     proceeds of Project Loan No. 6 solely to pay costs associated with
     Project No. 6.

               (vii)     Project Financing Loan No. 7.  The Bank agrees to make
     advances, (in a minimum amount of $250,000 and in a multiple of $50,000
     above such minimum) subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
     this Agreement, to finance the construction of one Model 59-R blast hole
     drill and related equipment and accessories ("Project No. 7") to be sold

     balance of Project Financing Note No. 7 shall not at any time prior to
     the delivery of the drill under the USX Contract exceed the lesser of
     (i) the Maximum Loan Amount or (ii) an amount equal to 60% of the cost
     (determined in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with the
     Company's historical accounting practices) of the work-in-process
     inventory comprising Project No. 7 minus 100% of the advance payments
     received from USX plus 100% of the Project Financing Reserve established
     from time to time pursuant to subsection (h) below.

                    The unpaid principal balance of Project Financing Note
     No. 7 shall not at any time after delivery of the drill under the USX
     Contract exceed the lesser of (x) the remaining amount to be paid under
     the USX Contract, (y) the maximum Loan Amount or (z) an amount equal to
     90% of "Qualified USX Receivables" plus 100% of the Project Financing
     Reserve plus 60% of the cost (determined in accordance with GAAP in a
     manner consistent with the Company's historical accounting practices) of

     advance payments received from USX.

                    "Qualified USX Receivables" means the aggregate amount
     (after deducting all downpayments, advance payments and retainage
     amounts owed by USX to the Company) which arose out of the sale of goods
     comprising Project No. 7 and which have been shipped by the Company in
     accordance with the applicable provisions of the USX Contract; provided,
     however, that if any amount owed by USX to the Company under the USX
     Contract is outstanding more than 30 days after the due date, then
     Qualified USX Receivables shall be $0.

                    (c)  Maturity Date:  The aggregate principal amount
     of Project Loan No. 7 and all accrued interest shall be due upon the

     the Company agrees to pay to the Bank on the last Business Day of each

     to the effect that the outstanding principal balance of Project
     Financing Note No. 7 exceeds the limits set forth in subsection (b)
     above in an amount equal to such excess and (ii) of a payment by USX on
     the USX Contract in an amount equal to such payment.  Any principal
     prepayment shall first be applied to the amount, if any, of Project
     Financing Note No. 7 consisting of Reference Rate Loans and the balance
     to Libor Rate Loans.  Upon any principal prepayment of a Libor Rate
     Loan, the Company shall also pay accrued interest thereon and any amount
     due under section 2.14(c).

                    (h)  Project Financing Reserve:  For purposes of

     Financing Reserve shall equal (i) an amount equal to the sum of 100% of

     100% of the cost (determined in accordance with GAAP in a manner
     consistent with the Company's historical accounting practices) of the
     work-in-process inventory comprising Project No. 7 minus (ii) an amount
     equal to the sum of 90% of the Qualified USX Receivables plus 60% of the
     cost of the work-in-process inventory comprising Project No. 7.  The
     Project Financing Reserve will be adjusted on each day on which the
     Company obtains an advance under, or make a principal payment on,
     Project Financing Note No. 7.

                    For purposes of calculating the Project Financing
     Reserve under section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement, the aggregate Project
     Financing Reserve for Project Financing Loan Nos. 6, 7 and 8 shall equal
     the difference between (1) the aggregate availability for Project
     Financing Loan Nos. 6, 7 and 8 under sections 2.16(b)(vi)(b),
     2.16(b)(vii)(b) and 2.16(b)(viii)(b) and (2) the aggregate outstanding

                    (i)  Use of Proceeds:  The Company shall use the

     forth in this Agreement, to finance the construction of two Model 49-R

     8") to be sold by the Company to Iscor Limited ("Iscor") pursuant to

     Contract"), as follows:

                    (a)  Maximum Loan Amount:  $3,500,000.

                    (b)  Limitation on Advances:  The unpaid principal
     balance of Project Financing Note No. 8 shall not at any time prior to
     the delivery of the first drill under the Iscor Contract exceed the

     the cost (determined in accordance with GAAP in a manner consistent with
     the Company's historical accounting practices) of the work-in-process
     inventory comprising Project No. 8 minus 100% of the advance payments
     received from Iscor plus 100% of the Project Financing Reserve
     established from time to time pursuant to subsection (h) below.

                    The unpaid principal balance of Project Financing Note

     minus 100% of the advance payments received from Iscor.

                    "Qualified Iscor Receivables" means the aggregate
     amount (after deducting all downpayments, advance payments and retainage
     amounts owed by Iscor to the Company) which arose out of the sale of
     goods comprising Project No. 8 and which have been shipped by the
     Company in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Iscor
     Contract; provided, however, that if any amount owed by Iscor to the
     Company under the Iscor Contract is outstanding more than 30 days after
     the due date, then Qualified Iscor Receivables shall be $0.

                    (c)  Maturity Date:  The aggregate principal amount
     of Project Loan No. 8 and all accrued interest shall be due upon the

                    (d)  Interest Rate:  Reference Rate or the Adjusted

     Loan Amount and the daily average outstanding principal balance of
     Project Financing Note No. 8 during the preceding month or other
     applicable period.

                    (g)  Prepayment of Project Financing Note No. 8:  The
     Company may prepay Project Financing Note No. 8 in whole or in part at
     any time upon two Business Days prior notice to the Bank.  The Company
     shall prepay Project Financing Note No. 8 immediately upon receipt (i)
     from the Bank of a notice (containing calculations in reasonable detail)

     Financing Note No. 8 exceeds the limits set forth in subsection (b)
     above in an amount equal to such excess and (ii) of a payment by Iscor
