Enormous Load!

Frackville, PA

I was unable to capture the enormity of this giant machine and all of it's components as I drove by the procession.
This truck and unit on a skid occupied nearly 2½ lanes and was nearly 50 feet long in total length.
Traffic was backed up a mile in each direction as this giant machine and it's parts were hauled through Frackville, PA.

Great capture. Not a lot of ground clearance on this trailer, is there? Vote.

Whoa! A big BLUE monster now!! You'd need a ultra ultra wide lens to get all of this chap in shot!

A 'monster' of a contraption.

Looks like the blue monster has electrical and plumbing...Pay Toilets???? Looks like it may be the back wall of a bathroom...wonder why they did not build on site. Great find and shot

Great catch Dave. Lots of cool details. They've got this thing chained down like King Kong. ;-)
