Recently attempted a heavy transport move, was contracted to haul an old diesel locomotive from Downtown San Francisco to Sacramento California. Below are pictures of the move taken by various sources. The move eventually ended in failure following a mixup between Local PD and State DOT officials in determining routes. Will retry new route at a later date, so keep you eye on this thread over the next few days.
Total trip expected to take 140 miles, approximately 4 hours. Max speed 30 mph, 5-10 while climbing the ramp to the Bay Bridge.
Taken by myself before beginning trip.
Taken by a SFPD officer charged to block the street for my turn.
Taken by a pedestrian impressed by the size and scope of the move.
Taken by pilot car driver after warning me of potential danger.
Epic failure on DOT routers, not able to clear Bay Bridge, will have to return to San Francisco and attempt crossing Golden Gate in 24 hours.
Will post my new trip across the Golden Gate tomorrow, hopefully.
