P&H 5-Ton Monorail Hoist Loading Lumber onto Barge

Image

Pawling & Harnischfeger 5-ton monorail hoist with a lumber handling unit, possibly in Pensacola, Florida. The monorail track extends over the dock to permit loading barges and boats with lumber. The text on the front of the ship reads "Ainsley" and there's a man in the cab, men on board, and men on the dock. A man and woman stand on the end of the pier, and a Lumber Co. building with porches is on the shoreline in the background.
