    I think it will be pushing the limits of the Coles as the frame and springs themselves will not be lightweight. Thanks again.

    Thanks for the replies anyway. Trying to work out which Crane to use. 12t Plasser, 15t Coles or the 45t Steam Crane. We think the Plasser is just out in the Lift Capacity, while we think the 15t Coles can cope with the weight it may come down to...

    No idea. We have a bogie in the yard that requires a crane lift so give me the heaviest please.

    Class 37 query.

    Can anyone tell me the total weight for a Class 37 bogie complete with all motors and fittings? Thanks in advance.
