Taken today. A coconut for whoever can identify the object loaded on to the back of this wagon. It is waterways related.

Hydraulic ram. Probably from crane behind. Yes it is a ram. Well spotted. No it wasnt from the crane, the crane was used to lift it. It is used to preform a waterways related function. The key is the location, to which there is a clue in the picture.

Hydraulic ram. Probably from crane behind. Looks to be a ram. Maybe off a lock gate or swing bridge? The ones on the Anderton lift are impressive. Cost in the region of a million quid each Iām told. Made in Italy.

Hmmmm.......now you've got me. I would guess lock or sluice? Not bad for a first post, having been on here for Donkeys reading and chuckling to myself.
