Thomas Kautzor adds: "The latter actually belongs to the owners of under-restoration FEC 0-8-0 253 (Steve Spreckelmeier & Bob Bates). All of their equipment was moved from the Gold Coast RR Museum in 2002 to FEC's Hialeah yard, then in 2009 to Fort Pierce, where they have established the 'FEC Railway Historical & Transportation Museum'. The crane is actually stored off-site, there are some pics of it on their website at
