075 — Direktlink 01.08.2012, 23:35 Uhr graham newell Hi everyone, Kraandoc and myself talked on the phone last night for nearly an hour ( great conversation Richard ) and came to the conclusion that the sum of the parts don't add up. If the assumsion of 5 cranes built are J.D.White R.G.Stuart Senn Manchester Liners Marine Board Of Hobart Then all is OK until you try and work out which one went where. There are two which I am happy with. Manchester Liners - Maats rental - Sindorf - Santana Cazorla - Pakistan This machine was rebuilt and new carrier cab added after accident by Sindorf, the replacement cab quite clearly has a quarterlight window in the side of the new cab much lower than when originally built. The steering wheel and front jacking point are correct through the chain of owners. The second machine I am happy with is the Marine Board of Hobart. Marine Board of Hobart - Boon - Bridge marine. Again all the bits are in the right place. Now it starts to get a little muddled. Firstly I must say that the J.D.White machine is 100% the reworked Sparrows machine, this is fact. It is known that under the yellow J.D.White paint is Sparrows red, it was never stripped, this also means that the original left hand drive of this machine has to be discounted and just about everything else we know about that machine. at the point that J.D.White took delivery, the Sparrows machine was history. It is understood that this machine was destroyed when it fell into the sea completing sea a defence wall. This leaves us 2 cranes left The R.G.Stuart and the Senn machine. It also leaves us with one more surviver the Muyammad Aslam crane. As Kraandoc rightly says this is not the ex Senn machine, the front jacking point is in the wrong place. The Senn jacking point is between the first and second axle, The Muyammad Aslam jacking point is behind the carrier cab before the first axle The steering wheel for the Aslam machine is on the left hand side as would the Steering wheel for the Senn machine, but the jacking point is still wrong. So here is the question, 1, What happened to the Ex Senn crane after Jeddah 2, Did the R.G.Stuart machine survive and get converted to left hand drive to become the Muyammad Aslam machine Regards (now totally confused) Graham Dieser Post wurde am 01.08.2012 um 23:38 Uhr von graham newell editiert.

076 — Direktlink 01.08.2012, 23:48 Uhr Hendrik Moderator Zitat: graham newell postete 1, What happened to the Ex Senn crane after Jeddah It went to Pakistan (Karachi), this was confirmed by our user "schwerlastemst" and we see the pictures in posting 008, stating "Karachi" on the cab. It post 001 Ralf Neumann states that 3 units are up working in Pakistan (as of 2005). If this is correct, then these are the units: 1) Senn 2) Bermuda 3) Muyammad Aslam If the Muyammad Aslam machine is the converted R.G. Stewart machine (and I don't know which other machine it could be, apart from the vague theorie that there was build a 6th unit), then the front jacking points must have been converted, too. I wonder if this is feasible? best regards, hendrik (also confused) Profil || Private Message || Suche Zitatantwort || Editieren || Löschen || IP

079 — Direktlink 02.08.2012, 00:39 Uhr graham newell Cheers Hendrik, just looked at post 008 in the thread, I didn't read it properly, so that resolves that machine, thanks for pointing out that. As for three machines in Pakistan, if that is true in 2005, then there were four survivers, I don't believe the jacking point would be altered for the Aslam machine so the question is where did this crane come from. As you say, is there another machine Regards Graham Profil || Private Message || Suche Zitatantwort || Editieren || Löschen || IP

081 — Direktlink 02.08.2012, 14:10 Uhr graham newell Hello everyone. Hot off the press, I have it on authority that there were actually 6 machines, I will confirm later as I am at work at the moment regards Graham Profil || Private Message || Suche Zitatantwort || Editieren || Löschen || IP

082 — Direktlink 02.08.2012, 20:23 Uhr graham newell Sorry for the wait everyone, this I guess is about as good as the information is going to get, go and have a look and I think it answers most of the questions. This thread was so close to the fact that there were 6 cranes and not 5 as the Muyammed Aslam machine did not fit in anywhere. There are a few details that are different to what I have said, I expect Tony to be more accurate than myself Here is the link http://www.flickr.com/photos/tonyonthemoon/7692566946/in/faves-62532775@N03/ Look at the link under the picture, sorry i am having trouble linking it any other way.

086 — Direktlink 03.08.2012, 23:45 Uhr graham newell I have just posted this in my photostream on Flickr, another shot of the J.D.White crane on handover day, it is a shame the very front of the cab is missing, but this shows you just how long the crane actually was with the seventh axle in position for travelling order.

087 — Direktlink 04.08.2012, 15:27 Uhr Bernard Haste Hello Graham, You state that the J D White machine was definitely the Sparrows reject reworked and that the red paint could be seen underneath the JDW yellow. Also that the machine was a write off after it fell into the water. I`m confused about this. One of the drivers of the machine, whilst it was in JDW ownership,does not remember the story about the machine being ex-Sparrows, nor that it was red underneath the yellow, nor that it was written off after it fell in the water. Can you tell us the source of the information and whether you can supply evidence to support these parts of the story? I`m beginning to wonder whether the Coles records are still extant and could be examined to elucidate what actually happened.

088 — Direktlink 04.08.2012, 18:02 Uhr graham newell Hi Bernard, When I say ex Sparrows Bernard, it was not a secondhand machine, Sparrows just pulled out of the deal to buy the first one of the production line after it suffered structural failure on test.it was a brand new machine when J.D.White took delivery of it. The story of the machine falling into the water and being written off was from a reliable sourse, but I will certainly ask where the info came from,it may not have been in J.D.White ownership when or if the accident happened and it may be unfounded after reading the Colossus story. There was a small picture in the Colossus 6000 brochure if I remember rightly which showed the crane in J.D.White livery, it was a retouched picture because the inside of the cab door had been left red. but all colossus enthusists talk about the red paint under the golden yellow of the J.D.White livery. As for the coles records, I very much doubt if they exist, if they do the are in the hands of Manitowoc. I realise that there are still alot of unanswered questions, which I also would love to know the answers to, but we are further down the road to piecing the puzzle together now than we were a few weeks ago. Lets hope we can gather the remaining pieces together in this thread Kind regards Graham Profil || Private Message || Suche Zitatantwort || Editieren || Löschen || IP

089 — Direktlink 04.08.2012, 18:28 Uhr Bernard Haste Hello again, I understand it was a new machine but I am still querying whether it really was the machine Sparrows had rejected. Bernard Profil || Private Message || Suche Zitatantwort || Editieren || Löschen || IP

The distuingishing feature here is the long tool boxes on the main running beams of the carrier.

(I don't know exactly the Sparrows fleet at that time, but really can imagine that the majority of their cranes were LHD?) It is also possible that due to the massive width of the crane Coles might have thought in the beginning of the design that a LHD concept is safer to steer the crane through small roads.
