Will it be stuffed and mounted for display or turned into razor blades?  
ONT 503 is an Industrial Works 160-ton capacity wrecking crane, serial number 3980, built in 1919, that hasn't seen active service in years. 
I have snapped it on May 4, 2004, June 12, 2013, and here on September 24, 2014, always sitting on a track in the car repair area of ONR's North Bay, ON yard. 
This crane met its maker in late October 2026 when it was cut up for scrap at AIM Recycling in North Bay, not far from where it languished for years.
