The Antique Powerland museum in Brooks, Oregon has an operable ex-Southern Pacific steam crane that will be in operation during the Great Oregon Steam-up (the last weekend of July and first weekend of August).

The Antique Powerland is home to, among other groups, the Oregon Electric Railway Museum, the Willow Creek Railroad (live steam), and the Pacific Northwest Chapter NRHS has a former Portland Terminal Railroad Alco, a spreader and a flanger on display there. As well as the former Southern Pacific Brooks depot hosting the Brooks Historical Society (and a trolley stop for the OERM).

A search for "steam crane Brooks" in Google will link to at least two YouTube videos showing the crane in action.
