History

This equipment was built by Industrial Works of Bay City, Michigan in 1913. This crane can lift 91 tonnes (100 tons) at a radius of 5.2m (17'). It was last used on the Dominion Atlantic Railway in Nova Scotia, and was stationed at Kentville, N.S. for over 10 years. At one time it had been assigned to Sherbrooke, Quebec. It was acquired by the C.R.H.A. (New Brunswick Division) in 1980 and was stored at Saint John, N.B. until November 1983, when it was moved to Hillsborough.
