This is a really great view of this crane. It has always amazed me the kinds of things cranes can do. Technology sure is an incredible thing! http://winslowcrane.com/pages.aspx?pageName=Services

Great use of the curved crane, Tony. Nicely taken, my friend.

Great lead in to this rare piece of engineering. Steam Crane seems like fiction.
