Two 5' 3" gauge 6w+6w 10T steam railway cranes built by Chambers, Scott were constructed to Job No. 1139/1925 for the South Australian Harbors Board. Local newspaper articles dated Aug 1925 mentions their arrival ( 10t at 15' ) In World War II one was at Adelaide's Outer Harbour, where it had been converted to a 50T (60T in emergencies) traversing crane in 1941, to compensate for the transfer away of the floating crane. It was out of use and partially dismantled in 1968. The other was at Port Pirie in the 1960s; scrapped ca. 1967.
