I don't what they're transporting by my god is that thing huge.

Also, lots of lovely lights to look at.

Wow... would love to know the specs on the tow/push vehicles. Very cool!

Well, that may be a large load for the UK, but here in Texas, the top box on my wife's scooter is bigger than that.

Looks like a step-up high voltage transformer without the bushings installed. It's probably full of the insulating oil too, hence why they had this special heavy-hauler carrying it to it's final destination.

That transformer was made specifically to power the world's longest 5-alarm Streethawk (which I saw is currently for sale in Findlay, OH on govdeals (where I found this picture: https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfmfa=Main.Item&itemid=546&acctid=2267)

Damn they used that huge trailer and two trucks probably for the 200 "Health and Safety" british rules they have for crap like that.... I saw a company bringing in some Generators that came in all the way from Italy on boat then they loaded them on one 6x6 old military truck with a trailer they drove that thing about 50 miles to its location with a police escort at about 20 miles an hour took them like 2 days. No fucks given lol
