Dominion Atlantic Railway Burro Crane
In 1963 the pile driver was scrapped, but the frame was used to construct a "Burro Crane Transporter" #418135, which was a very long flatcar with rails on the deck and a set of ramps to load the Burro on the deck, where there was a coupler mounted to secure it. At the far end there was a support for the boom to rest on. (1)
