110 ton trailer built for hauling wind turbines.......

[Auba14]

Big trailer we made at where I work. This is 1 of 1. Not sure if more will be ordered. Supposed to be somewhere out on the East coast. If you see it give me a "shout".

How Great, you were a part of building that piece of modern marvel. I've only seen it's cousin making a turn in Poncha Springs Colorado and it's Great Granddad in Death Valley, plus I saw once an other relative heading west in Northern Nevada as I was going east on I80 hauling an autoclave to the gold mines. That one had highway patrol cars flashing lights in from and back and a very long line of big rigs and other vehicles behind that. I was glade I was going the other way.

That's cool Auba14!

Tamrock - If memory serves me the autoclave was going to one of Newmont's mines. At bridge crossings they had to beef up exit/on rams to support the weight and they only moved it for about 4 hrs/day to minimize traffic. I believe it was fabbed near Salt Lake City.

No doubt it was going to either one of Newmon'ts or Barricks mines.? Their the only ones who got the kind of cash to buy things like that. Recently Newmont acquired the CC&V gold mine in Cripple Creek. I went there about 3 weeks ago and have been told there are plans to develop an underground operation there.

I see something similar to that in the late 80's hauling a Power Plant made in Poland to the
Industrial Park down the road from here.

GOD Bless
