While scratching around recently I came across this piece of track, looked for more but owner has only been there a few years and said thats it was there when they got the place, too heavy to move.

At first glance I thought Sherman T66 track (http://web.inter.nl.net/users/spoels...track_hvss.htm), but that's not it.

Can't think of anything else at the moment, sorry.

Looks to me like early shovel track..not crane...crane tracks are generally very wide and broad and flat like plates..
Looks like maybe early Komatsu shovel..Jap anyway..not American..
What do I win...?
