I have tried several times to get the one sitting in Winnipeg and no one is interested in even talking about it. I try just about twice a year. Almost due to give it another go.

We had a 900 at work years ago, we removed the stick and used it for a yard crane till the tracks gave out, it had a rare 8V53 Detroit, and if I remember correctly it had three hoist cyls.. Koehrings also had the cab on the right side!
