Thank you, Roadix, sincerely ! The begining of the phone number on the wall shows this place is not very far away from where I leave... But I never saw this crane... shame on me ! This crane is based at Chemin de la Ménude, Colomiers, in the western suburb of Toulouse


Well, I do not see great differences between this 506D and 427/428 models. The previous 506D model was quite different with its two tie-bars and its lower cathead. I've never seen anymore this model for some years.

Thanks,

This is just the same type I photographed in Tampere department store site. Still one 506 is stored dismantled about 100 km from here in a factory yard.

Yes, in fact the 506D was found while going for lunch in a new restaurant in the ZI d'en Jacca. I took the chance to have a few spare hours on Saturday before departing home to take pics of that crane - among others. There is a Richier GT 1177 close by.

I have pics of a 428 F which seems to be a newer generation as it looks pretty much different. This one is in Germany.:
