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 town

where SWORD/TWH also had their toys on display and for sale. I heard recently that SWORD/TWH went out of business

so I'm not sure what has happened with this store. Cool place though. The last picture is actual cranes at the factory.

Ok, gotta get my story straight here, TWH who made the models for Sword went out of business and Sword is still in business.

Gotta get it right, don't wanna be that guy "saw it on the internet so it must be true".

Dave's a great guy to deal with and one of our BMT members also does some of the masters for the kits for him. Paul

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).

It's not a perfect diorama, but darn close. Didn't see any of this at the fuel island either.

That Werner driver would have died!
