Thanks, don't worry, it's pretty hard to give the wrong impression. I like this place, it's fun! I'm all for joking around.

Here are a few more, give me an idea what you would like to see and I will see if I can do it.

Heres a picture of a reactor heading to Alberta with some information.

Reactor vessel moving to the Alberta oil sands project

When the hydro cracker reactor was shipped from the Port of Duluth, MN to Opti Nexen's Long Lake Upgrader Project in northern Alberta, it was the largest single load ever carried on North American railroads. The reactor and CN railcar had a total weight of over 1,000 tons! This dimensional load moved in a special train service on CN lines, restricted to a maximum speed of 15 miles per hour and only during daylight. Furthermore, due to the extreme weight, the move had to be accompanied by operators whose job was to shift the load when moving through curves - all to ensure that the centre of gravity of the load stayed over the centre of the railcar.

not sure what he was thinking

:lmao :lmao

That reminds of an incident many years ago. I was building homes in a new section of the subdivision and I just had a framing package delivered the day before and the carpenters had not started yet. The next morning I pull into the project and find about 20 sheets of OSB spread down the street like a deck of cards. After scratching my head a few times and wondering how the truck driver spread the OSB down the street, I find a hood ornament for an Oldsmobile at the end of the spread. Well I guess the would be thieves were as smart as the people in your picture because the best I could tell they went to take off and did not have it tied down- it slid off the roof and took the hood ornament off and hopefully the hood! I got a good laugh and picked up my material.:rolleyes:

I think it's a Kenworth but it is hard to tell. Couldn't see a bull puppy on the nose of any of them.:D

Maybe it ran away. :beatsme
I did notice a Kenworth insignia on the last one after a closer look.
