It gets used all of the time, just doesn't need both trucks for most work (there are two lifting parts that together can life 510 tons, which is what the rotor of one of the units weighs.) This crane was also once used to put someone's car on top of a crate when they disobeyed a no parking sign...
The Gantry Crane was manufactured by Pasco. Main hook is rated 510 ton, tested at 620 ton, sister hook 300 ton, runs on 175# crane rail. Assembly by Carpenter Rigging, Syracuse NY, GC Perini Corp/G.H. Ball, a Joint Venture. The crane components were shipped via rail from CA and off loaded at Gilboa siding and by trucked to site. I was there, amazing piece of equipment.
DN Zh the bridge cannot handle the weight of the load. therefore she had to make her own bridge. as you could see, they had put a block at the end and between heavy metal plates. if you look closely you can see that there is a space under these plates. what they actually did is build a bridge over a bridge
The road bridge was not capable to support that load so they used the temporary bridge that transferred to load to the same bridge abutments but without overloading the bridge deck.
good job
I remembered this project being built. My father worked there as the Safety Engineer.
This video makes me love humans again.
So, if they had resurfaced the highway so that it was a few millimetres higher, the transformer wouldn't fit under the bridge.
That's a hell of a gantry crane, I can't imagine it gets used very often?

Does NYPA operate the pumped storage site? Also wow the clearance on the underpass was to the inch!
@Alvin Alaric That's a cybercrime in some states, I'll report this to YT.
That's Amazon delivery.
with a drone
why had to make a ramp when passed the bridges ?

als je nu nog sneller de beelden wisseld hoef je de hele film niet te maken niet om aan te zien
Nice pictures, but ....stupid sound.
Silence would be great for watching!
Why does every interesting video have to be accompanied with horrible music
Horrible is in the eye of the beholder.
Mute it.... easy to do
Why the portable bridges?

Ruined by the awful chop chop, fast, slow editing style. Is this aimed at people
