Crawler crane (Krupp Ardelt) "Toense"

When Toense was swinging the wrecking ball

Heavy transport specialist Toense was entrusted with handling any type of job as early as the nineteen sixties. Consequently, the Krupp-Ardelt crawler crane was also right for the job when it came to swinging the wrecking ball. In real life, it was thus used in demolition work - which makes this combination a well-chosen pairing of models. That is surely reason enough to revitalize this construction vehicle, which WIKING offered only for a short time from 1962 to 1964.
