The crane was originally purchased in 1912 by the Commonwealth of Australia, Department of Defence for the Naval Forces of the Commonwealth to be utilised in the construction of the Flinders Naval Base (now called HMAS Cerberus). It was used on a steel tramway of Irish Gauge (53) which ran along the wharf at the base and assisted in the building of the base (the base was commissioned in 1921).
The crane was sold by the Commonwealth Disposal Commission by Auction on 28 August 1946. It was purchased by Feiglin Timber Merchants and used in
their Yard in Nunawading, Victoria to load timber. It was then on sold sometime in the late 1980s to a steam enthusiast Tod Watson, who displayed the crane at his Machinery and Steel Yard in
Echuca, Victoria. He moved his business (and crane) to Albury in the early 2000s.
