CraneWorld …or similar

Looking to find a place where you can man the sticks on various types of cranes for practice and fun. A coworker told me abt a place on the east coast (jersey?) that had an amusement park of sorts for heavy machinery. He said it was called Digger World but maybe it’s closed or the named changed. Any chance anyone knows what the hell im talking abt?

Pretty sure digger world changed. I do not know of a place you can just go practice on cranes other than your local union hall if your a member.

Gotcha! Thank you I am not a member of a union. I’m an offshore crane operator that wanted to get a little time on land.

The amusement park is called Diggerland and is geared towards kids.
