Cowans Boyd Crane

Attached are a few photos from late in 2010 of the Cowans Boyd Crane stored at Chullora after 'falling over' at Sefton a few years back.

The jib truck is made on the frame of 48131.

Enjoy

    WHAT A MONSTER. I HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHERE THIS WAS.
    IS IT STILL IN THE SAME LOCATION ,LOOKS LIKE ITS NEAR A PERIMITER FENCE ?
    WHO ACTUALLY OWNS IT?
    IS IT REPAIRABLE?
    SO MANY QUESTIONS !!!

    The crane is sitting at the Railcorp Chullora compound on the Hume Highway and Worth St.

    It did have a blue tarp covering it, but that has blown off exposing the roll over damage.

    Railcorp own it and I would say it will never be repaired.

    Does anyone know what jobs it has been to, and what jobs it has actually worked?

    Cheers
