Madison County, NY 1953 Koehring 304 crane - unit No. 156_8

Engine: GM (Detroit) 3-71N three cylinder diesel

 

Likely relatively new at the time of this photo, the county's Koehring 304 crane is seen on yet another early to mid-1950's bridge construction job. Here it is being used to lower a girder in place for a newly constructed bridge, exact location unknown.

 

The girders were hauled in by the Mack B-61T tractor & trailer owned by Syracuse Rigging, a company still in existence today.
