Fairbanks 22 Ton engine move at Zagray Farm

This is just like the old coffee shop, which was like the old coffee shop down the street. Pull up a chair, sit down and enjoy some good discussions. Please, no political, religious or racial posts.

Cool video of old iron moving old iron .

About halfway thru the video though I felt sorry for the poor crane operator , as it looks like he's receiving instructions from at least 6 or 7 different people .
Looks like a case of to many chiefs and not enough Indians .

I also overheard someone in the video say that the crane operator was having trouble hearing instructions over the cranes engine noise , a set of walky-talkys would have been handy to have .
I see a lot of cub cadets while going down the tracks , its a shame I can't pull over and ask about them .

Neat stuff! I'm guessing this is for a museum of sorts......or just for a bunch of men to stand around and watch? As long as all the cheifs r not on a payroll ..no problem. :lol:
