[nhrrman]

@taterheadkiley We were told 500 tons.....not sure if thats accurate, but it had been extremely cold when they made this move and they still stopped it for several days for the roads to get even more solid from the cold as it was damaging the roads as it moved, Craig

It isn't too often to see a RD-800SX. When you do,It's always got something extremely heavy it's pulling! Great vid!

lol how would u get fuel is there like a fuel truck that follows or something?

[nhrrman]

power going up the New Hampshire hills and brakes going down... might just have been following for insurance at this point... took several days to move it over the road over some pretty good back roads hills...

[dragonriversteel]

@marianoturnquest It's a Euclid tractor once used in a mining operation somewhere in MI. The video depicts this same Euclid as a back up truck or pushing/breaking power.
