Director Tim Ambridge said: "This second 500 tonne crane was ordered on the back of a very successful first machine."

Established in 1976, NMT was founded by Nick, Mark and Tim Ambridge - hence the name NMT - and the company was originally set up as a recovery business based in Bedford, but now also has depots around central and southern England. The company's fleet ranges from 13 to 700 tonne All Terrain cranes.
