Popular Post PeterMack Posted November 2, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 2, 2013 A couple years ago I was able to take a tour of the Manitowoc crane factory and the tour started at the Factory store in townwhere SWORD/TWH also had their toys on display and for sale. I heard recently that SWORD/TWH went out of businessso I'm not sure what has happened with this store. Cool place though. The last picture is actual cranes at the factory. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PeterMack Posted November 18, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2013 I took these a couple years ago at the Big Iron Classic in Kasson MN. This guy brought out a nice display of a 1/64th scaletruck stop, although I didn't see any lot lizards or guys peeing between their tires and flinging trash on the ground so it wasn'tan exact replica but still nice. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Thats a pretty sweet diorama, something off though(other than lot lizards and guys peeing on tires)..........I got it, all those company trucks are actually between the lines of the parking spots and the guardrails aren't all bent and scraped up(obviously a new truck stop).

vision386 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Must be an imaginary place! I see a Swift truck BACKED in a parking spot and the lightpole behind him is still standing!
