I just noticed that is a truck/trailer combo, I thought it was a train load at first.

tried to give some dimension to the pics
in the second pic, far left, yellow cab, not sure if 1 or 2 people ride in there for rear steering, similar to a hook and ladder fire truck

AFAIK they are just south of Wolf Creek at the rest stop,
Wed AM should be in Bowmans Corner

I thought it was a train too. Wow. I didn't know we allowed things like that on the road.

I remember watching those go through Kalispell one night. Had no idea it was 12 years ago, how time flies. As I recall the total combined weight of one of them, complete with the 5 or so trucks, was north of 1,000,000 pounds.
