Disused dumb steam grab dredger Fairway. Used on the Caledonian Canal. Priestman crane. Now scrapped. I hope I've got the location right. It was beside the British Waterways Board Office. This shows the inside of the Priestman crane with the driver's position and one of the two steam cylinders. The bucket is on the deck and seen through the driver's window.
