I'm almost 100% dirt, but I couldn't help but get these pictures as it's rare for me to get a chance to get close to something like this.

These pictures were taken yesterday with my blackberry, It's a 2007 Liebherr LTM 1100-5.2.

On edit, I found the company website: http://www.sauttercrane.com/





And for a little size reference, my 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD

I had one of these for a while, great crane....in fact fantastic crane! just the right size, not to big its can't get into some tight spaces and very good duties for a 5 axle machine.

Thanks for sharing

Gaz, You're quite welcome. I don't post much or share may pictures, but I figured a few guys might like my find.

Sautter's yard is not far away from me, they seem to be a growing crane company, and with Thackray and amquip ruling most of the crane business in the Philly area, Sautter has have a real nice fleet of cranes for their size. Nice catch Rob.

Thanks Mike, They do have a pretty nice little fleet. I'd love to one day catch the big boy of their fleet the LTM1400 and the boom launch trailer, but it would have to be by shear luck. There is nothing around here to my knowledge that would require that size crane.

Nice shots!

I hope you don't mind if I add this, since its from the same rental company. I found it just a few minutes ago while going through my archives.

We're working in Roebling Steel. I got the shirt from fellow operator Eddie McHugh which is the son of one of the former Mchugh Bros. I believe he is friends with them.

Gaz and Junior 1 are correct. The LTM1100 and the competitive Grove GMK5100/GMK5120 are fantastic five axle daily rental machines. The LTM1130 and the GMK5165-2 may well surpass the popularity of these machines. These US 120s with either 40 or 60 ton truck machines are the backbone of many US rental companies.
