Second Garston bridge removal ( crane set up )

This was the start of part two to remove and replace the church road rail bridges in Garston Liverpool, a special crane and lifting gear was brought in due to over head lines

Com: Bill : If you put these tracks on this machine a lot have a 6foot spreader bar designed for the load lose the synthetics

Com : Pete: Great video. Those cranes are fairly easy to put together just big and heavy bits . Myself a rigger and crane driver used to put together 250 and 300 ton crawler cranes in 3 to 4 days worst part was reeving the hook a truly horrible job

Com: Don ogo : 1968, Rigging school. Rule 1: There are two sides to every load. The crane side and the suicide. When unloading the first track, several of those workers were standing on the suicide.

Com: Gerald: Did the same thing all my life and it was a good time sometimes it is dangerous had fun and made money though came out alive
