The X-45 was scrapped at Orrville. Only the boiler remains. Word has it that the X-14 was also scrapped in New Castle last year. I think I was the last person to operate this one. All three cranes that I'e had a hand in have been scrapped. I wish I had more resources... |

Thanks Rick, that is sad news but not unexpected. At least now I know what happened to them. |
