This 40-ton, 3'6" gauge, crane is seen at Ebute Metta Junction, Lagos, Nigeria. It was Nigerian Railways' crane No. 2.
Martin says he was momentarily arrested for spying when taking the photos, but fortunately a senior work colleague was driving past in his car and managed to stop the proceedings in the nick of time!
