Dunno if you're asking in the right place, but that wingy thing on the right side sure got my attention. Maybe ask on a construction or heavy machinery forum.

Hi Alan,

The actual crane looks to be a British made Coles EMA, although the running gear it is on is not familiar.

I think you're right. Thank you.
Now, about that strange running gear...

Mobile Kitchen at Aldermaston AWRE

found this on the same site - looks like a conversion from a Queen Mary trailer.
