More than one would make it difficult for the cranes to work efficiently, unless you model a lake boat pretty-much close to scale size. Huletts, while a totally different design, also have both moveable bridge and trolley.

Wayne, i was aware at the fact that they moved, but i thought it would look cool to have a row of them lol. Would it be better and more prototypical to have only 2 bridge cranes in this space?
