That's a blue VTL on the left middle, right? If so it's HUGE! I don't have anything that big at my current shop.
Very nice. Reminds me of the Hickam shop in TX.

All three of our balance machines are IRD: 5,000 lb, 15,000lb, 55ton.
The vertical swings 202", I know of at least one bigger in Houston. Our beast is our lathe 11.5' swing x 35' between centers.
I would like to think our shop is step or two above Hickham's
(Hickham does do more work and has a lot of stuff we don't have)
Some old pics of our largest vertical and lathe:
