I imagined it did! It's just a bunch of people that underestimate the power of trains. They knew trains are very powerful but wasn't able to do jobs like this or haven't seen a job done like this brfore. Most would think Peterbilt will haul it all away. It would take days for a truck to haul three silos. lol

The Union Pacific sent out a crew from Omaha to over see the two huge cranes that lifted the 'tubes' onto the extra long trailer cars. But they only were able to get half of them there . . . so they had to make two trips, lol. It stopped traffic on main street for hours. The auto detection for the crossing guards would or could not be stopped. They had to get the local sheriff to direct traffic and over ride signals. The whole town showed up to see them loaded and moved. Quite something to see. I was just driving by, lol, but know a good shoot when I see one. I spent the day and have a lot of fun and interesting to me, shots of the 'move.' I am glad that the crew here seems to like them . . . my thanks.
