Railroad “crane”
These machines are derricks, not cranes.

 * There may be technical reasons for classifying them as derricks, but Wikipedia's common name policy requires us to use the term found in the majority of sources, at least for titles. If you can find significant sources calling them 'derricks', then you could add it as an alternative name (and cite it) in the lede. -- Verbarson talkedits 19:21, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
