With a safe working load of 10T this 500 Series electric overhead travelling crane may not sound too remarkable... however the rest of the specifications tell a different story.

Capable of 2m/s long travel and 1m/s cross traversal, the crane itself weighs well over 40T, spans over 24m and has a wheelbase of 5.5m. The large blue grab (pictured below) is designed for handling limestone and stands 2.8m tall.

Update: more recent photos showing this crane leaving the factory.
