I seen that while looking threw your gallery earlier. The real wild part is that the big one is a crawler and the little one is a tower crane. Just the opposite of what you would normaly imagine.

They actually had 3 of the big crawlers about that size in that yard. They must have had 50 of those little tower cranes. The big crawler cranes where all 3 different brands. I remember one of the really big ones was a Liebheer or something like that. A huge marvel of German Engineering. We got to see one of the big crawlers crater the boom one day. They got the load off kilter some how. The whole thing crashed over. It's amazing that no-one was killed. They had new boom sections on and had it back in operation in about 3 weeks.
