The Cowans Sheldon crane in the museum in Budapest has been confirmed from its MAV file of 1950 as works number 8056. Interestingly the file states it was donated by / bought from a United States Military inventory ca. 1947. An explanation of this statement would be interesting.
This picture of it at work in Hungary appeared on a websring ( unattributed ).
