I'm sure the tourists hate it but it's nice to see this stuff really putting the Badger to use.......It just shows how valuable she really is.I mean could you imagine this having to drive around :O
Interesting when comments are so easy to criticize these guys with this equipment. Loads are transported in the U.S. based on federal and state laws. They don't just load up and go. Various permits are in place before anything happens. F.Y.I.
Wow, I still have my porcelain coffee mug from my ride on the USS Badger bringing my SAAB over from Luddington, Michigan to Manitowoc, Wisconsin in 2004!
US Highway laws are ridiculous and really draconian, with the right permit in AU we can do pretty much anything. That load would go right on the back of a heavy drake lowboy spreader trailer with no need for that ridiculous assortment of axles and trailers.
This is heading to my Fathers work it will be here on Monday the 5th of November! Pacific Recycling its a 3 million dollar piece of equipment to crush cars! :D ill try to get a video up on it!
Not for nothing, but for what that whole rig costs ( and what they charge to use it ) you would think the guy steering the back could maybe get like a seat, and a roof over his head ?
I'm a very mechanically oriented guy and I don't really understand all of what I just saw. Sigh. It's hard to imagine this thing on the road. Is there actually a training facility for this?
joe woodchuck no training facility, you just have to start at the "bottom" and work your way up, listen to the guys that have PROVEN that they have been there done that ( or something very much like that because no two jobs are the same ) and be able to learn from others mistakes.
There has to be a way for that vehicles tires to be able to slide across the asphalt instead. It must be hard on the asphalt and equipment to make a turn like that. I was thinking like teflon "sleds" that can be pulled down onto the tires. Sorta like a motorcycle visor. Just leave one axle to brake. When your going that slow it should be safe. Or have a crew lay some sheets down as it drags along the asphalt.
Can somebody help me , I have some questions , how many loads a truck like these do a month ??? A year ????. And how much they charge for that kind of load ???? . Thanks !!!!!!
I was thinking the same thing, I think it must have a hydraulic drive on the rear bogie powered by whatever was screaming away in the grey box, there is no way the tractor could cause that movement at the rear.
Yes I understand the steering mechanism of the rear bogie sections, but the loading orientation of the trailer mechanism would be colossal to get the rear of the trailer to move two or three times as fast as the front as appears to be the case.
It's hard to determine by the RPM's on the APU, if it is used for traction as well as steering. It would make perfect sense, but it also might depend on how old the rig is. The fact that it goes down a lot in RPM's, when steering action is applied, could suggest that it is a smaller engine, used for steering only. It seems it would not have to work as hard to make the turn, if it had to drive a pump for propulsion as well. That it would have a more linear power use. Hard to tell though.
Americans always seem to go over the top when it comes to transporting abnormal loads. There are far too many axle bogies on this set up for the load...and far too long.
Yeah I know its easy to criticize but why turn around it the parking lot with the truck, just rotate the load on the crane hook????? show ponies captured on camera, selfies on cell phones
I'm surprised this hasn't been seen many more times by now. But then it took TH-cam 8.5 years to suggest it to me.
@Carleen Better late than never. Sounds like fun. I hope it's a good trip.
11 years for me

What a rare sight. thanks for sharing!
I’d like to be the tire salesman when they pulled in for new tires with that truck
I'm sure the tourists hate it but it's nice to see this stuff really putting the Badger to use.......It just shows how valuable she really is.I mean could you imagine this having to drive around :O
sure leaves you dangling, will be looking forward to the next video. Thank you for sharing an amazing adventure.
Hi I Sailed on the S.S.Badger in 1994 and she's still sailing and looking so good after 24 years

Nothing like a Diamond trailer to get the job done .rip Steve Engle
This is the Proper way to prep for a Sunday afternoon " boat " ride.......
Six inches more, no no, three inches back. I guess you had it right the first time. My wife as load master.
Oh the small motor today
7 years later and No part 2 ??? Must still be unloading :)

Yes but it makes for incredibly entertainment,In the AU the can’t put on a show like this put on by tru professionals
And fantastic equipment 😎🇨🇦

High, wide, and heavy is a whole different animal than otr trucking. Try dragging a D9 through a two lane Main Street on a busy US route. No picnic.
Been on it two times !!
I got a feeling that was Way too much trailer for the load. Probably could of used less maneuvered much quicker.
That load has its own ZIP code. Dang! WTH is that thing?
Damn...I can't even parallel park.
Honey Boo Boo........ That cake batter spreader you ordered off a Amazon just arrived from China.........

Zach Hansen Hi just wondering if you managed to get a video of the car crusher up on TH-cam yet? Would love to see it in action. Cheers
I wished the Spartan was in service again
+Sinking Simulator me too :(
I wonder if it ever will be
Who the hell put a light pole in the oversized load turning area?
esso es un bueno huguette por las ninias en tiempo de pascua !
How much did the badger sink in the water.good video.
Probably not a lot if any, cars and semis are considerably lighter than the loaded railcars she used to carry.
Not for nothing, but for what that whole rig costs ( and what they charge to use it ) you would think the guy steering the back could maybe get like a seat, and a roof over his head ?
No sitting down on that job my friend Eric
The back part looks like it is powered so it can pivot on it's own without the truck moving. Is that correct or does it just seem that way?
You need the truck moving, otherwise you cannot steer, the rear half of the 19 axle is powered only for steering the three axle groups.
Is the whole assembly 160 Tonnes then?
I'm a very mechanically oriented guy and I don't really understand all of what I just saw. Sigh.
It's hard to imagine this thing on the road. Is there actually a training facility for this?

@@austinmoehring6110at 0:35 you can see the driver lifts the tag axle on the tractor to make the turn
Can somebody help me , I have some questions , how many loads a truck like these do a month ??? A year ????. And how much they charge for that kind of load ???? . Thanks !!!!!!
About $150.00 a mile Jorge
What propells that multi wheeled dolly? is that a generator in front of the operator
I wonder how much is the daily rates of 19 axles trailer like that...
a lot
7 axle set up is $2,500/day without pilot trucks. This stuff is easy $25,000 day with all that is involved.
Does the rear have it's own power unit,and is it some sort of hydraulic drive?
I was thinking the same thing, I think it must have a hydraulic drive on the rear bogie powered by whatever was screaming away in the grey box, there is no way the tractor could cause that movement at the rear.
That's what I am thinking, but it does seem the truck pulled the whole thing.
The truck pulles it all and the rear has hydrolic steering just lile the front. At eachaxle set on the trailor pivet in the center to get the steer.
Yes I understand the steering mechanism of the rear bogie sections, but the loading orientation of the trailer mechanism would be colossal to get the rear of the trailer to move two or three times as fast as the front as appears to be the case.

Hey didn’t these men plan the route long before they arrived at the dock duhhhhhhh
what was this truck hauling?
theodore scott its a 5 million dollar machine to crush cars
I wouldn't want the passage bill
Theres enough axles there to carry the fuckin ship! Rediculous?
Hell that's not oversized, My motherinlaw makes it look like a toy.
I'm with ya brother....I have one of them too....

To spread out the weight so not to damage roads or bridges.

Americans always seem to go over the top when it comes to transporting abnormal loads. There are far too many axle bogies on this set up for the load...and far too long.
I think they're are laws of how many axles for the weight.
I see he had one axle on truck lifted up so i might guess the piece weighed 175000 to 200000 lbs
He lifted the axle to start turning.
BS...Go study heavy haulage.
You don't have a clue lol
Don't say the words Voter Fraud, youtube will beep it!
Anyone know what a trailer like this, with all of the dollys, minus the tractor costs, in American dollars?
1 Million
400$ K
i bought a aspen 13axle and it cost 750k
