Luckily a mate alerted me to it, two prime movers, two 10 axle dollies, do not know what it weighed, but each axle has 8 wheels so total of 160 load carrying wheels, I have some more pics if anyone interested, Rick

It is a transformer for our substation in Potmans lane they had a smaller one delivered last year, I guess it probably weighs around 500 tonnes and the transport medium will weigh at least that again, Rick

I once worked with someone in heavy haulage (not on this scale but up to 180 tonne) I think it is interesting work but not so much fun for the second driver.

I did Europe for 5 years with a 32 ton artic, loved every minute, but that job for me would be dead boring, but nonetheless would love a drive, Rick
