Mike's thread gave me the idea of seeing if we can report (or debate!) the biggest crane in each state. If we get a report on all 50, maybe we can put together a final list. Pics or it didn't happen! MAINE: (440 Ton) Manitowoc 16000 w/ Maxer Cianbro has one, R&R have two. I suppose our walking Ringer would be second if assembled.   NEW HAMPSHIRE: (300 Ton) Probably American Steel Erector's Manitowoc 2250  How about your state?

I live in Ohio, about 45 minutes away from AllCranes yard on Rockside road.
I know that their 21000 was used at First Energy's Sammis generation plant on the Ohio river.

For California, it'd probably be Bigge's 125D AFR. The crane is owned by Bigge, but I think it was built and tested in Arizona.

Mullen crane out of Idaho has 2 Manitowoc 18000's and a liebherr ltm11200. The cranes are rarely here though. Last I heard the Liebherr was up in Canada. So I guess the biggest is Inland Crane's 440 Ton Demag TC2000.

Are you talking about cranes that currently work and/or reside in each state or the biggest each state has seen in the past?

Neat stuff, guys.
I was thinking cranes based in each state.

this is a tough question as most cranes can be rented out of state.

That's very true, but I was hoping to get a neat cross-section of which machines are actually based in each state.
EDIT:
Let's add some pictures too to keep it interesting!

I swung by STG and didn't see the 1600/2 that was brought up for our powerplant construction. I need to check a few other sources and see if it is still "based" in Anchorberg...

This is the largest crane in Massachusetts that I know of. Manitowoc 14000. 200Mton capacity on this bad boy.  ^Note: not my picture, The real machine is on a bridge replacement job in Berkley (Town next to me) I'll try and get some pictures of it at work tomorrow.

That Crane is in Sitka right now on a big Dam project. Another forum member sent me this pic. Maybe he has some more he would like to share.   Our 4600 ringer is the largest on the water. Rated for 600 ton in current configuration.

Catman got the crane wrong but he did get the weight correct. 200M ton equals 440 US tons.
