Hi,

Over on RYPN, there is a thread on currently operating railcranes (from light to heavy).

D&RGW had wrecker OZ that was drafted in Jan 1942.

Pile Driver OB I guess could be used as a crane. Did the D&RGW have any other cranes or lifting equipment?

I'd also be interested in White Pass and others had for carnes or pile drives.

As a first offering, the GJ&S/GM had a pile driver until 1914 when the narrow gauge was abandoned.
