Here are some newer pics of the Triple 777 working in Manitowoc. It is on a barge interesting it is not tied down or fastened to the barge in any way. Its Dawes Crane Rentals They are using it to take down a old swing railroad bridge that is not in use. The load block is reeved for four part line must be doing some decent lifts. This crane will also be working on taking out another train bridge that has been stuck up in the air for years. The bridges are located and go to Manitowoc Shipbuildings old yard. Where Manitowoc Cranes, ships and Submarines were built. I don't know if it could handle this last bridge. I guess it all depends if they can get it to lower. Torch it up and lift it out in section. Will be interesting. Hope you enjoy the pics. Please let me know what you think.
