Heavy load
Title:  Heavy load
Description:  What you are looking at is a rotor being moved from the Farley Nuclear plant in Columbia AL to Pineville NC. It moved from Columbia to Hilton GA via the Chattahoochee Bay RR and is now awaiting NS to move it further. I understand it weighs 420,000 pounds thus the special flat car.
