Mammoet is a privately-held Dutch company specializing in the hoisting and transporting of heavy objects. It was founded in 1973, specialised in heavy transport over water and roads. In 2001 it was taken over by Van Seumeren transport. The name Mammoet became the name for the new company. The daughter company Mammoet Shipping was sold to Spliethoff and was renamed in BigLift Shipping. It raised the Russian submarine Kursk. The company is experienced in the offshore, petrichemical, and construction industries, the latter of which includes rapid bridge replacementusing Self Propelled Modular Transporter vehicles. Mammoet headquarters in Schiedam is located in a distinctive office building named De Bolder (= "The Bollard"). The building was fabricated in a factory and later shipped to the current location. This helped to save time and money. Have fun with these, Harold

Rock Island created some of these by rebuilding some standard cupola cabooses with windowed extensions applied to the sides of the cupola itself, but by far the greatest number have the entire cupola compartment enlarged. This model was introduced by the International Car Company and saw service on most U.S. railroads.
