    Hi
    I'm trying to confirm a crane at the Ribble. I believe its a S&R (9045) built 1917 5t Steam Crane ex MSC. It is grey livery with the base & central unit remaining, no arm. The reason I ask is someone has said there are 2 S&R cranes here? I'm aware of T&H 81201.
    Cheers
    Steve

    Hi,

    Yes, we do have 2 cranes, inc the ex MSC steam crane kindly donated by the Ellesmere Port Boat Museum, & it does have a jib, but not attached at present
