Yesterday on the way back from a trip to LaGuardia I came across this interesting lift. They are working on a new overpass between the Van Wyck Expressway and the Grand Central Parkway and there was a LTM1500 of Bay Crane lifting a huge girder in place. I had some time and I was lucky to see them place one of these girders.
There were three trailer combinations with girders waiting.

Good catch!

It would be a complete travesty if WSI do not make this version of the 1500! CW's would not be 100% correct but that is something I could live with.

Great pics, would be a shame if they didn't make this version. Love the colors, could probably transform it into sterett, would save me a lot of painting

Good pics, it is always nice to see High Steel Structures, they got some pretty cool stuff.

Awesome photos! Seen a lot of the high steel trucks.. My sword beam trailer will probably get yellow wheels. And I absolutely hope WSI makes red and white versions of the 1500 and 1350!
