When railroads had to do a major cleanup of a train wreck, they bring out "the wrecker" - steam powered cranes that can lift trains and debris to clear them from the tracks and open up the mainline.

We will be firing up our steam crane for demonstrations on Sunday, May 26. The crane was purchased by the railroad in 1907. We restored it to operation in 2005.

Our steam powered crane has 100-ton capacity. It was built by the Industrial Works of Bay City, Michigan in 1907 for the Nevada Northern Railway. We are going to use it to lift a Balwin VO diesel locomotive prime mover that weighs 35,000 pounds. THere are other videos on our page showing the lift. The crane is now in position, the spreader bar is on the big hook with the lift chains dangling down. As Josh says they could do it as a maypole. Every time we use the crane it's part of our training a
