The guy who shooed me away said I was looking at a Grove 350 and Demag 400.

Yes it was Mammoet, here is a closer view of the beam, who's going to take the first guess at the weight?

Impressive pictures! You need some heavy machines to build a bridge. 50 tons is something you have to move, that's not so easy, you need some experienced operators for a job like this.
