Comments: - - Transport of a 260 t transformer for the network operator Tennet through Kahl Heavy Load.
Route: From Glückstadt harbor to Kummerfeld near Pinneberg.
Impressively clever machinery worth millions to move that transformer, and impressively skilled driving to get it through the town. All very carefully planned. Great video.
Man, you guys have some impressive equipment and skills. I have more respect as you show how difficult that corner was. Well done sirs.
Am I counting correctly? I see 12 wheels on each of the tractor units 116 on each of the front and rear weight-bearing units, and another 48 on the unit that fits under the middle for bridges.
I would be interested to know how long the heavy-duty train was on this route. At the end in Elmshorn, a lot of maneuvering at the crossroads was the order of the day.
Are the scissor lift bridges with the 14 axle lines also self-propelled or can they only be steered by remote control? As far as I know, Mammoet's are almost all self-propelled. Depending on the road situation, the tractor units save themselves the hassle of coupling and uncoupling. With such transports, time also means money - a lot of money.
