SP 7020 - steam wrecker, Brooks, OR

For those not following on social media, the SP wrecking crane at Brooks, Oregon at Antique Powerland Museum just had its boiler rebuilt. The boiler was sent out to be re-flued (300 flues). Insulation has been installed and lagging is next.

Is there another working steam wrecker out there? These are awesome beasts.

I wonder how the lifting power of a steam crane compares to a motorized one?
