Saw Ainscough's new LTM1500 yesterday but have only just got round to uploading the pics,

It was doing 24hr shifts lifting steel beams weighing between 15t and 30t but I never caught it lifting as the wind was too strong

Great pics again Sam! Always good to see the 500 Smile

I passed parts belong to Ainscoughs LTM 1550 or TC2800 the other day whilst on the DLR. No carrier thought, just boom parts.

Thanks Paul,

I imagine the dlr means you were in Stratford, so I think it would have been the LG as I saw a pic the other day of that in Stratford...

Great pictures Sam. Cool

Could have even been the CC, I'm not sure of the route of the DLR but Tristams rigged up around Canary Wharf.

Last night I saw baldwins LTM1500 lifting an old steam engine from moor street railway station in the centre of Birmingham, I was there from 12.30 to nearly 4am, a long night but well worth it in the end...

































Sorry the picture quality isn't great but at least the content is there Wink
