Thoughts on this rust?

Pictures are of a 20T runway bearing on a 1914 multi wythe brick wall. Roof has been leaking. Upgrade in 1985 by supporting the center runways with new columns but the runway ends weren't reinforced. We failed the crane inspection.

cant say I'm surprised that it failed inspection

Sandblasting is needed to see what section and weld metal is left.

Love the upwards bent rail pic - haven't seen that being used instead of end stops.
This must've taken enourmous amounts of heat and force.

Is there any chance you could post a wider picture/overall view of the end of the rail?
Thanks, a rail afficionado.

Good luck with the crane though.
