Crane Loco
It’s a misty Monday morning. And we have the arrival of a former Great Eastern Railway J15 converted in to a crane loco. The complex mechanism lives inside the modified tender and is operated from a control room in the box van behind. The loco is now oil fired, the oil being stored in the tank wagon. Derek & Clive have a few choice words, starting with “how the £¥€$§^ is that going to get through the £&#+% archway to the right?”. Barry Bullhead (the time and motion man from the Ministry of Misery) is concerned about all the extra crew required to operate the new contraption, it replacing a Ruston crane which can be driven everywhere and operated by just one bloke called Bob.
