[edit] Straddle carrier/containerlift confusion

I am confused.

To my understanding, a straddle carrier is a machine used only in portside operations. It is not roadgoing, and is used for the stacking, unstacking, loading and unloading of containers within a portside container environment.

A containerlift (also sidelifter or swinglift) is a road going truck (usually semi-trailer) that is described in the first paragraph of the article. Ian peters 12:34, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree
I agree also. There should be a seperate page for Container King's Sidepicker and others
I agree a straddle are a very specialised crane not comparable to a containerlift.
Agreed. I attempted to split it, but the page seems to use the two names interchangably and I can't quite differentiate them. --Dean Earley 23:24, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
