- A 95 meters long and overall 592 tons heavy formation transported a 260 tons heavy transformer from Leer to a distribution station near Conneforde, Germany. For this, the High Girder Bridge of the Kahl Heavy Haulage corporation was applied. The transformer came by a barge on the Ems river ( • Anlanden eines 260-Ton... ).
This is part 2 of a threepart series about the transformer transport from Leer to Conneforde:

It's like that time when I couldn't get the sofa through the door. I had to take off the legs and maneuver it in such a way where it finally went through. These guys know what I'm talking about..
The heavy transport guys do a great job , the general public have no idea of the skills required for every part of this.Well done lads
Bought this one on Aliexpress, free shipping thank god!!
Somewhere in the U.S., there's a drunk Ford owner telling his drunk friend that his F150 could've pulled it.
Some years ago I worked at the CPSES power plant in Texas. During the first year of operation, the unit #1 primary transformer blew up (1150Mw transformer - not a typo). Very spectacular. Took 6 weeks to get a new one made (not an off-the-shelf item) at about $4 Million. They shipped it by rail, but the last 12 miles it had to go over the road and they used a similar rig. They used a much bigger truck to pull the unit. Traveled at a whopping 2 MPH. Its hard to grasp how big this kind of rig is. The transport rig rental cost close to $750,000 alone (not part of the $4MM).
Much respect for the engineers of such vehicles.
1 and million chance you'll see this beast on the road in person! Great video. Did not know such a rig existed!
A very well-made video, well-photographed and (thank God) no ‘music’, even if I didn’t have the faintest idea what was actually going on here. I was totally mesmerised by these mighty machines. Better than Star Trek.
Maneuvering that load through narrow German streets is just wunderbar !
Retired transport driver here, my hat is off to them. I have "backed" some 53 foot long trailers into some really tight loading docks that were designed B 4 53 footers were thought of. Playing yard Jockey at my plant I did have some drivers ask me to back their load in. I usually said to them "if I do that you will never learn", I would stand on their running board and show/tell them what to look for in their mirrors, when and which way to turn the steering wheel. 8 in 10 drivers could do what I told them. Others would take too long and I would just get in and do it or have them unhook and I'd use my yard truck.
Finally I find one of these videos where they aren't talking about how powerful the MACK® truck is.
This is why the last guy in the convoy is the insurance man with his trusty little cheque book.
THE CAMERA SHOTS WERE CLEAR AS A BELL AND VERY VERY SHARP!!!!! NICE JOB.
I wanna be their tire guy....." I need some tires! Ok, how many do ya need? How about 240 or so........." :>))
I can't be late for work today!
Huge job well done. 600 tons is Big. Hats off to the people that designed and built those trailers.
Ein absolut geniales Video von der ersten Strecke dieses Höchstschwerlasttransportes. Trotz dunkelster Nacht Aufnahmen in brilliantester Qualität. Das ist richtige Spitzenklasse. Daumen ganz weit hoch für dieses extrem hervorragende Video. Gruß Unimedien.
I bought that on Amazon 6 years ago. It's still on the way. Thank goodness it was free shipping.
What an absolute monster.Great driving skill too.Imagine also that it has to be unloaded when it reaches its destination.Another problem.
Worst day of the owners life is when this rig needs new tires.
