wasnt this monsters first job to finish the milwaukee brewers stadium after Big Blue went down? that was the only other place i remember seeing this beast at. Yup your right.,At that time the 12600 was the biggest game in town and Mammoet was some dutch outfit from Europe..

Thank you Gaz, I'd been wondering about the old girl where abouts. Glade she's still working.

Not the live mast Lostacrane, the A- frame that houses the upper winches I mean on the 126 the AK912 has none. Chet

Thanks.

Thanks for those pics! I would absolutely LOVE it if Mammoet used the 12-6 to do the coke drum replacements over here in So Cal early next year, but I guess I will have to "settle" for the PTC!

Damn it... I'd have driven down if I knew you were going to be there.  Any chance they'd let a lay person in if chaperoned by the likes of yourself? ^^

Can't find that thread on this forum, search didn't help... but do the pics happen to be the same ones as on this Flickr site: http://www.flickr.com/photos/43180509@N08/4273351721/ ? Then I already know them.
