75 tonne metre crane

The largest crane in the armoury is a Palfinger PR 750 railway crane mounted on a unique 44 tonne articulated vehicle.

Features are:

  • A reverse knuckle joint between the lower and telescopic upper booms which allow the upper boom to extend vertically upwards outside the centre line of the track.
  • A telescopic counter weight increasing performance in
    restricted areas.
  • A winch and hammer head

The crane can mount the track at a level crossing in 7 minutes.
