Dominion Atlantic Railway Track Crane No. 802.
A medium-sized self-propelled steam crane built by Industrial Works in 1911, SN 2408.[1] The date of the Science and Technology Museum picture [2] is not known, but the arch-bar trucks of the boom car suggest an earlier rather than later date. (Even though MOW cars are often old and out-of-date for interchange service.)
