The Steam Crane ... An antique equipment next to a new 'City'. Easy terrain and you just won't miss it ... unless you are in the wrong time zone. Easy access and no special attire needed. However a torchlight might come in handy ... with good sleuthing skills and geosense. Ha ha!
A railroad crane is a type of crane used on a railroad for one of three primary uses: freight handling in goods yards, permanent way maintenance, and accident recovery work.
Although the design differs according to the type of work, the basic configuration is similar in all cases: a rotating crane body is mounted on a sturdy chassis fitted with flanged wheels. The body supports the jib and provides all the lifting and operating mechanisms; on larger cranes, an operator's cabin is usually provided. The chassis is fitted with buffing and coupling gear to allow the crane to be moved by a locomotive, although many are also self-propelled to allow limited movement about a work site.
