The more information I learn about cranes,the more the "crane bug" bite's. Sooner or later I'll have to remedy that wound. The big Liebherr crane's suit my personal taste . Thank you for sharing all these wonderful pictures Jack.

I hate you Jack!!!!! Wink Teeth always get to see all the big stuff, one lucky son of a b*tch WinkAni Can't remember the last time I saw a 'big' crane set up, Wm.O'Briens LG is about an hours drive away on a windfarm at the moment so I might have to take a spin up to it Teeth

Here is something different for the thread. A New 232 ton footbridge over the M54 here in Wolverhampton which is coming as part of the works to the adjacent new Jaguar Land Rover plant. I was a little disappointing to see SPMTs instead of a big crane but it was still interesting to see.







Still got some crane action in the form of a LTM 1040-2.1



Cheers

Thanks Paul mate Smile , The bridge rolls out tonight, its a shame I'm working, there is another footbridge about a metre from where the new one is going, where I got the first shot from. Would have been able to get some good night shots Sad
