Yay! New school bus time! How much road do you have in your neck of the woods?

So… Wonder where it came from.
Lower 48 or from another Alaskan port or from Canada or ??? (Yeah, I am completely clueless about life in Alaska.) |

Are the buses four-wheel drive?

Intracoastal waters only?
Can't see a ship with so little freeboard, stacked so high with what looks like mostly unsecured cargo crossing the Bering Sea. |

That’s the mobile mine package.
Pull up to port, unload, and set up your own mine, village, and everything that goes with it. |

I know it works, I have a small bit of understanding how it works, but how does it not sink? Can't guess what it weighs loaded. According to my calculations it weighs in at just over a shit ton.

Here it is in 2008 in Seattle with my truck on it.
When they built these the paint they used to coat the voids (tanks that don’t hold anything) continued to offgas for many years. I had a standard rental order for generators and fans to gas free them so we could do inspections. That’s why you see the yellow fans with plastic ducting on the deck. I used to get 2 generators on trailers and like 30 fans and gas free it for a day for the tanks to be safe to enter. I had just gotten my truck and decided it was a neat picture then. I actually had tools in the tool box.  Attached File |

A few times the freight barges get stuck at a crossing and have to be lightened. When the water is high you will see river freight barges loaded so heavy the deck is very close to the river. |

Man does that look random as hell, what a great pic!
Must give those shipping OCD types fits! I think I see at least two boats on trailers up there, took me a little bit to make them out. |
