Titan II

  • stick1949 said:
    The Titan was a floating crane. Shipped out to India with some of the yard swan neck cranes and the floating dock in May 2009. There is a very sad video showing the heavy lift ship Osprey leaving the Tyne with the Titan on board at www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GJsiDLIG9g.

The Ottawa

  • stick1949 said:
    This is a good view of Swan hunter and Wigham Richardson's Wallsend yard. The Ottawa was built in 1964 and this photo shows her on the ways. There is a video of two of these cranes being demolished in 2010 on youtube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZaya3ACAUw&feature=player_de...
