Maintenance of Way: Burro and Fairmont Cranes

Reference

Pictured here in 1968 are the Burro and Fairmont cranes. The disposition of the Burro is unknown, and may not have been around by 1975. The Fairmont, however, is now owned by the Black River Railroad Historic Trust, and is now restored for display.

The Model

Railway Express Miniatures happens to make fair facsimiles of both cranes. As a bonus, they also make push carts, like the one between the two cranes in the reference image.
