That not only can be used on sidings around the engine shops , but also at industries with or without tracks .

Take your time! Who can keep up?! Too many other things to get built first.

Thank you for this recent torrent of incredibly nice (and useful) products.

BTW, that's [ Length=3.1" ], right?

And a suggestion for future consideration? A larger version of one of these cranes, say something in the neighborhood of a 60' span with a 25 ton bridge that travels on a suspended runway(s)?

[TrainCat2]

Typo (or brain fart) ... It is 3.1" in length

This was a fun and quick project. I realy enjoy getting ideas from you guys. If you have a suggestion, please do what Chris did. Send me drawing and/or photos w/measurements. I am always open to new items. Matter of fact, someone from T-Board just sent drawings for a wood-chip loader. VERY interesting, I'm going to do it over the summer.

Very Cool!  I can't wait to see that one built.  Might have to order a few.....

I think the site owner needs to receive reviewer samples of all your products ... just to make sure my users receive quality products

[Ed Kapuscinski]

You know what would be cool? A scrap shredder / baler.

Just a thought.

Mmmm, yummy. Will probably spring for a few at least. I can see making other thing from some of the parts, too.

Chris, what vintage MR did the scan come from?

[Skip]

I can see that that is a lot simpler than a NYC four track signal bridge.

What I covet is older, something similar to the second image but with fabricated piers rather than steel columns. A feeble attempt at imagery:

Looks alot like the walthers crane


But the tuss looks like the Vollmer
