We are in the process of creating a website page of plant cranes (Account 315) including; Shops, Offices, Maintenance facilities, Warehouses, Shipway Offices, etc.
Our First 'iPost' (initial posting) are drawings of both the Central and North Yard showing facilities with identification numbers that are reflected in the following list. Please be patient with updated postings as there is a lot of research and documentation involved. Dave Kavanagh
SSHS hopes that you will find this 'Plant Cranes' page both easy to navigate and informative. As with all other areas of the website;
1) If you can contribute new subjects or additional information on existing panels, please let us know by contacting SSHS from the email address on the home page.
2)We have done our best to insure the accuracy of the information presented on the site. However, this information is from multiple and varied sources including past employees memories of events during the Sun Ship era. The accuracy of this information cannot be guranteed.
