You certainly don't need me my friend. Those are pretty darn good shots if you ask me. I will get over there this weekend and snap a few for my collection though. What will they be lifting? bridge sections or something? Didnt realize there was anything in the area that required a large crawler.

I need to get my Sony out and get some nice quality pics of this beast. Just look for a guy taking pics there he is very nice and you can get some nice pics where he is located. I might go over on Monday maybe I will get lucky and they will be off that day. Jason Feel free to post anypics you take Plumber

Unbelievable. Lucky, lucky, lucky! From this point forward I think you just need to keep the "good camera" with you at all times! So...what do you charge per night to crash on your couch? - Chris

Cool, do you know what they are going to lift?
Btw that mobile crane is not an LTM 1250. 1250 is a six axle crane, that one is some other five axle one.

tidy bit of kit, thanks for posting.
The liebherr is a LTM1220 5.1, hard to tell the difference between the LTM1200 & LTM1220 but the 220 has 5 tele sections and the 200 6, count them.

Feel free to crash at my place you can baby sit my kids for a night and we'll call it even. There is about 3 good sites to get nice and close to the crane I can take you to. They are lifting bridge girders at a large radius so they had to use this crane. I was hoping Deep south would get its AC1000 by now and they could have used that for this job. Jason
