Gallery Accidents and Derailments A Disaster Recovery Operation photo07.gif

This shows the green coloured freight wagon placed between the row of trees and the crane being readied for further recovery efforts. The crane has a capacity of 140 tonnes if the load is within the tracks. When it takes a swing outside, the lifting capacity reduces drastically. Hence, the crane is shifted to the next spot 10 or 15 meters away, re-positioned and re-anchored before lifting the next wagon shell.
