Bridge Lift

Post #1 by FOWLER MAN » Fri Apr 29, 2016 9:39 pm

Hi,
I came across these old pics on the net,
That low-loader must have been popping along a bit to lift the bride off the stonework like that. The O&K on the trailer seems to have go off light looking at the damage to the bridge.

I bet that got the heart beating and the insurance company nervous
I noticed the prime mover only has single drive tyres and they dont look like super singles either thats a bit unusual I would have thought
what a mess

Three bent rams on the O&K but not beyond repair unlike the bridge; looks like they'd need Evel Knievel to bring the next train down those lines. :P
