Thanks for the pics and info regarding plant used by the R.E.'s and most likely R.C.E.'s. I've noticed a difference in the RB 19 in my pic and the RB 19 in your pic, due I assume to the difference tasks they are engaged in. In the Caen pic the RB 19 has a short, solid framed arm with a shovel whereas the crane in your pic has a long skeleton arm. One obviously used for digging, the other for lifting items such as bridge panels.
I don't think the original pic is an RB 19... the steam shovel body in the original pic looks longer.
