"Finally, Amazon have delivered my zeppelln!"
Those would come via air delivery.
Considering the weight, it might even be a lead zeppelin
Bugger! I was hoping for Led Zeppelin 😢
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 And all we got was a Hindenburg 😝
you ordered 2
3:06 those are aero covers for rear facing LED signs
There's a company in the Netherlands that has regular transports like this to and from their factory so all roundabouts in the area have a straight piece of tarmac over the middle so the trucks don't have to go round the roundabout
Meanwhile in Oslo Norway, a few years ago they rebuild the main road to and from a cargo transport area (train to truck and vice versa), where of course the main usage of the road would be heavy cargo transport. And in their brilliance they made several roundabout because they are cool. And NON of them big enough for trucks to drive through. (This from the "company" responsible for more or less all road contractions in the country)
Damn, nice, in my country they're building bicycle roads no one uses
Je was me voor 🤣
Here they have build a roundabout and at the same time changed a train crossing to a tunnel, and when the roundabout was finish, they noticed its to close to the tunnel and the ramp down would be too steep. So they had to redo the roundabout, 5m lower.
Previous there was a on demand traffic light, but thanks to the roundabout and a new traffic light with a fix cycle on the next crossing, there are traffic jams every morning and evenig.
If we say "Gas Tank" in German it literally means gas tank - not for gasoline, but for LNG or other gas. That probably the reason why its so heavy (61 tons), to enable it to hold high pressure.
Yes, its always a challenge to deliver stuff like that. I assume its no different in the US - not all factories are right next to a highway and have a on ramp. So they will have to navigate through towns and country roads, too.
To the shape of the back I think they are standing verticaly like a silo. To the masse I think they are double wall. And they are defenetly gaz contener.
It were CO2-tanks for natural gas production reasearch.
it comes from Salzwedel(still produce 300million m³ Erdgas in a year) so it means Erdgas, this Transport was in Lower Saxony not far away from Gifhorn and not in Rhineland palintine
No one likes when Germans say gas tank....
@@racamonvery good
Hey dude, the things on top of the support cars are electronic signs. They can display stuff like "drive slowly" etc.
Edit: they can also show full traffic signs, too.
In this case to signal an oversized transport that must not be overtaken
You might want to try playing "Snow Runner" ... which is a "simulation" where you play a trucker/transporter (there are LOADS of different trucks of different size, but you can have really long heavy load trailers.
Concorde or Submarine delivery to Sinsheim next 🙂
yeah
5:00. in the Box is the hydraulic Control Panel from Trailer.
The Trailer was to low. The Drive Lift them up a Little.
I sometimes get impressed by how precisely bus drivers manage to manoeuvre through narrow streets and alleys. I live in Vienna, and we have buses running in the city centre. Lots of narrow streets and sharp bends there.
To weigh in at 3:45 the fifth wheel in german is called Sattelplatte. "Saddle plate". The reason is the difference here in Germany between a "Saddle" trailer and a normal trailer. Normal trailers are the ones you hang behind your truck, the english tandems. Saddles are the ones, resting ON the semi, like a saddle on a horse. The english semi trailers.
Hope this helps :)
and the counterpart on the trailer is called "Königszapfen" (king's dowel/pinion/trunnion)
@@Trauerdurst_TD3Dkingpin
and the streamlined rooftop on the van is the mobile traffic sign preventing the following cars (hopefully) from overtaking.
3:00 There is a display panel on the back of the Mercedes. To prevent the wind from blowing over the display panel, there is this wind deflector that directs the air over it.
For us this just normal😅. It’s an extendable lowboy trailer with steerable and probably remote controlling rear axles. What he did was rise the trailer on the air suspension
The pieces on the roof of the support vehicles are displays for instructing the following traffic. It might show signs for 'attention' or 'overtaking forbidden', something along these lines. And because these displays are huge they have a wind cover.
To be honest... it is very, very rare that such transports are carried out during the day because of the traffic jams that result with it. Back then, I always drove at night with police escort who blocked off the streets and diverted traffic, and what you have to deal with most before you set off is the damn bureaucratic paperwork because from a certain size and/or weight onwards, the route has to be driven, measured and planned months in advance. But there are "permanent permits" for up to 3 meters wide (9.85 feet).
Driving the route in advance is important to avoid obstacles.
For example, it happened to me once that, despite the police checking the route themselves, I had to stop with my transport on the motorway because the "motorway maintenance department" had set up a "mobile 1 day-time construction site" and nobody knew about it because the crash barriers had to be repaired due to an accident
The location is in northern Germany near by Wolfsburg, named "Schönewörde", a tiny little sleepy town
Gastank - not gasoline but gas and probably liquid for better storage to produce electricity in a power station or other use in a smithery, glas production etc. Those containers are a masterwork due to their tightness.
I,do intrun transport at at a concert factory in Bunschoten-Spakenburg. Whit a forklift and a trailer. 11 meter ( x 3 for ? Feet) 18.9 Ton. Whit a Linde E30. The trailer is made for for max, 16 tons.
That was a relatively short cargo. Wind turbine blades are more than twice as long. Twice the fun to haul them along those streets 😂
as you mention wind turbines, there is (or was) a plant of wind turbine company Vestas near Husum if I remember right. They had special built roundabouts. for those oversize transports, they had a lane right across the roundabout that otherwise was closed of for traffic.
Others in more industrial areas I have seen had a wide band of pavers that were not part of the actual road around the center, but made things a lot more comfortable for large transports.
In any case, the route is planned much in advance, to find one that fits and in case signposts... have to be temporarily removed.
Yes! One thing are the transports from factories to sea ports but when transporting the huge ones to final destination, when on shore, it often are hilly areas and really "one of a kind" transports planned long ahead. The newest windmill from Vestas are higher than the Eiffel Tower! Insanely long blades. I though think they are primarily expected to be raised at coastlines or at sea. These should be raised around the world RIGHT NOW, as they can produce the bulk emission free electricity and energy for green hydrogen, that we globally need to transition to NOW. Soon these trucks can run on green hydrogen from the turbines and blades, they used to transport using fossil fuels. Will only make the transports even more impressive.
@@la-go-xy alongside routes that may be used frequently, or if someone had the mind to think ahead, you may find those road signs being screw clamped into some sort of sockets.
If not, out comes the angle grinder... considering what the whole transport costs, replacing a sign post isn´t really that big a deal.
@@Mike-zx1kx When it comes to such transports at least in Germany, those have become an incredible factor in slowing down the project of building new wind turbines. Due to planing difficulties the companies at the moment file up to about 35 different routes, all different potential permits, as changing anything afterwards is somewhere between a pain in the rear to impossible and they never know if a city, county or whatever along the route does not permit the transpart in advance.
Planning for especially those transports is estimated right now, to have about a 7 year lead time...
If you can find it, you should look at and comment on what goes into moving one of the big bucket wheel excavators (Radbagger) between browncoal mines in Germany. Calling those monsters big is an understatement.
I reckon those crews earn some well deserved beer at the end of the day.
The Shields upon the Vans are Backlooking Traffic Signs! To keep the Road behind fre from Overtakers
Nice that my hometown got mentioned. Greetings from Manheim
These are awesome, but you should see some 70s' and 80's heavy transports from Germany with Mercedes-Titan, Faun HZ and Kaelble heavy duty trucks, those machine are so cool 😎
The gas tanks are for the storage of gaseous substances at low temperatures, so that they turn into a liquid. This way the pressure in the vessel stays relatively low compared when the same gas was liquified by compression alone. The outside of the tanks we see is the thin stainless cover of the insulation around the tank itself.
Most likely these tanks are either for Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen or LNG. In Europe the word gas means literally any substance that is in gas form, but also to substances which are in gas form at ambient temperature but are made into a liquid by storage under pressure or at a low temperature.
The tanks: 8,000 cubic meters, 32m long (105 ft), premium steel, 62 t
It were carbon dioxide tanks for a natural gas production reasearch facility.
It was meant for testing how using of compressed carbon dioxede can improve the production of natural gas.
Recently, there was a WW2 submarine transported to a technical museum in Sinsheim. Looked very similar. You could check it out.
They actually wanted to transport such parts with a cargo lifter (Zeppelin). However, the company went bankrupt in 2002. The airship hall is now used as a tropical island.
Just to poijnt out that CargoLifter went bankrupt. Zeppelin still very much exists.
@@M0rket Zeppelin still exist because they dont do such silly projects like the cargo lifter.
Watch please a Bruce Wilson 😂❤ He build a new Scania v8 770 for America ❤
8:05 as you see there's a crossing for ppl/bicycles (the sidewalk passes through the grass to the street), the bollards are to protect those from cars. they are usually concrete or metal and usually go ~5ft into the ground
To tell you the truth, this is not that hard. They had very few really hard turns. There are a LOT of much more hard transports going on. Now, haveing griped, thanks for your wonderful passion and enthusiasm, I love when people appreciate the hard work our transport workers do. You are a credit to the UA-cam guys.
They could have done this in a minefield and someone would have still called it easy.
@@9.5.9.5 Well, this was as said very easy. No problem at all really. Sweden did this two years ago: 700 tonne, 106 meter long, 260 kilometer on road AND also a ferry added to that. Over some bridges they had to rebuild the trailer to add eight more axles and could only drive at 1 km/h.
a 20meter long steel stack with a 4m diameter .... we could it just so so lift on the truck. almost no room under the gantry crane :D:D
you should look up the transport of the german submarine U-17 which was transported 570km inland to a museum
during my military time i transported similar weights (60-64t) but in a more compact formfactor, driving a Faun Elefant (SLT-50) / Faun Franziska (SLT-56) carrying Leopard 2A4 tank.
i think thats a truck you would love as well!
I absolutely love this 🔥 keep it up your content is amazing
These tanks are used for storage, eg corn, flour, any kinds of small food. Breweies use them to store grain and beer, milk factories use them to store milk.
They are also used to store different liquids for industrial use, from gasolione to Isopropanol.
You should look the videos from the transport of the Submarine U17 to the Museum
I would like suggest for those who are interested to watch the videos about the transportation of parts of an airbus A380 in France.
Just mind blowing.
There is a channel called "convoi ecxeptionnel France" with some cool stuff too, and a lot of videos "convoi exceptionnel".
03:12 this upper lifted roof is look it back --- Warning lights and warning sings.
Hey Ian :) love your vids.
You should watch some Brazzeltag Speyer Videos :) maybe start with the 2023 vid and dig yourself thought some awesome vids of the museum Sinsheim and Speyer. In my opinion a bucketlist thing.
Bet you will have some real fun.
Special hint... Brazzeltag Tatra V10
Keep on the great work dude.
Greetings from Frankfurt
Andi
04 : 19 Front of trailer is compressor for trailer hydraulics to keep enough clearnce at ground / road aand on curbs balance sides no tilt too much .
Congratulations hitting 200k subs 👏 😊
The driver engaged the remote control of the trailer at the 5:00 mark. At 7:00 you see the guy behind the trailer, hes controlling the rear axles remotely. That feature disengages above 10Km/h. from there on it uses the Fifth wheel connection to control the rear axles. Its a system that relies on mechanics and partly computer input.
The axles are loadbalancing with the computer control so whenever an axles goes over a hump. it will be lifted to keep equal pressure on all axles.
Here is a video with details and a massive scania ua-cam.com/video/80UqQfv-NpQ/v-deo.htmlsi=uFcoqkN_sqYpvE7C
I think a look into Truck crash tests would be interesting.. Volvo has done some amazing things in recent years.
Those pilot cars are called bf3 thats begleitfahrzuge and There are different types of class from one to four and four has police class. Im from sweden and sometime drive in europe with heavy and wide loads . I have a 5 axle scania 770 and a 4 axel lowloader faymonville
You should really check out the transport of a Giant U17 submarine in Germany, going to a museum.. Bit bigger and heavy.. And tighter! :) Hope you se this and enjoy it! 🙂
at 8 min: its easier to remove the signs then signal lights,if it would be a intersection
You need to see how they transport a whole windmill especially the wings in netherlands
6:33 A random guy started a talk with a member of the service team. He is informed that these are gas tanks coming from Salzwedel in Saxony-Anhalt, about 520km (323mls) away from Maxdorf.
No, its 56km "60 km Fahrt, Maxdorf bei Salzwedel- Wittingen- Schönewörde"
Congrats 🎉 to 200k subscribers
Bear in mint that'll be metric tons, not imperial tonnes
62t is equal to roughly 137,000 lbs
a nice example to see that we have more advantage with frontsteer trucks instead of the tractor unit that you use in the usa. the turning circle is much smaller, better maneuverable and clearer view from the cabin. and yes these are nice videos to see what is possible.
If this interessets you, consider watching the transport of the U17 to the Technik Museum Sinsheim
Not fuel. Gas. As in butane etc. (Gasbehälter mean gas container.) Nice trailer with steering on all axels.
You should checkout the Broshuis convoy to Assen truck show if you like some euro trucking, no massive loads but some amazing rigs and trailer combos 👍
Toe it looked like the front two axles on the trailer were turning as .well
It could be a hell off work to drive like this😢
"Gasoline" is a brand name :)
There is a joke with someones mother and her "toy" somewhere in this video
9:37
casual Keg for when the haul is done for the day
11:22
Steel Plates thick as a thumb and about the same footprint as a F 150 with a bald eagle on either side and a couple of happy meal bags in the front, stacked 3 high in some spots
I could imagine that you would like that: Strangest "Things" at the NÜRBURGRING (on YT).
I think you got the wrong Maxdorf on the map. The Video says Maxdorf near Salzwedel. That's in the north.
Northern Germany
Wittingen, Bromer Straße, Ernst-Strackmann-Straße
Hankensbüttel, Wittinger Straße, Hindenburgstraße,
Wesendorf, Celler Straße, Wittinger Straße
Finish: Schönewörde, Schwarzburg
You can see the tanks in google maps!
The accompanying vehicle at 8:24 has the number plate starting SAD which is Schwandorf (Bayern), that also fits the accent of the guy answering the questions of a passer by.
@@la-go-xy but the tanks were transported in lower saxony through Wittingen, Hankensbüttel and Wesendorf.
@@la-go-xy the Video description is pretty clear, though. Also, this looks exactly like Niedersachsen/Sachsen-Anhalt.
@@christianh.4881 How did the vehicle come in then, did they organize the transport??
The city with the most roudabout in the world is Carmel, Indiana, USA ;)
Volvo is the goat🇸🇪❤ but also kudos to the driver he knows what hes doing he's also a goat
Edit: UA-cam PLS STOP THESE BOT COMMENTS
Have you ever heard of Astra Bridges? those things are crazy
They have mostly a Full Crew bevor them cutting street signs and so on
To me it looked like the front two
Check heavy haulage of U-Boat U17 chanel HD1080ide
hey man you should make a video on volkswagen 1.9tdi / diesels if your into rolling coal especially in scotland and ireland👌
FH 16 = 16 mind 16 liter enigne = 976 cubic inch displasemante
See the video of the transportation of the wings of airbus380😂😂😂😂
Just wanted to check that you do know that Volvo Trucks and Volvo Cars are not the same company.
I am just glad we do not have Swift drivers here in europe😂😂😂
Look for the first Scania R 770 in the USA! Not the S! Sorry, i'ts the newist R.
Sorry, but your geolocation is wrong! This transport is in "Lower Saxony" The transport went through "29386 Hankensbüttel, Wittinger Straße 1" at minute 6:35
Gas means something different outside of America.
Hi Ian. Love your channel. But could you please use a pop-filter on your mic? Or at least a better one? Thank you.
3:11 - These are foldable, digital LED traffic signs which warns the traffic behind that there's a Heavy Cargo going on.
4:51 - The trailer is on air bags and can be moved up and down depending on the needs
It's all down to the skill of the driver and he gets the blame if anything happens l
don't they get instructions over the radio from the people around it?
Hi, have you watched the Concord transport to the museum in Sinsheim?
ua-cam.com/video/4MdwmQtoXNU/v-deo.htmlsi=nrqPN9nQBsyS26T1
Actually your location ist wrong.
The Video ist from Center / north Germany. This Transports destination my home town. A little 900 people village. If you search for Schönewörde you will find the right spot.
I couldn't identify the maker of those trailers, but i know that Goldhofer is a big manufacturer of those. Here is a link that shows the moverability of thos trailers respectively vehicules (in combination withan enginepack the trailer becomes selfpropellant): ua-cam.com/video/GQiWOCAh2yI/v-deo.html
it is a Goldhofer trailer, you can see the name on the flaps around 8:00
I would call the Volvo a boggie drive with a lazy or tag axle.
Volvo cars and trucks are not the same company anymore. The car business is owned by a Chinese company. Not the same quality it used to be !
Have you seen the videos of the transport of submarine U17 from technic museum Speyer to technic museum Sinsheim? It took 4 weeks (river and roads). There are a lot of videos on their channel, it was really amazing :-)
Here is a timelapse video: ua-cam.com/video/pGbuH1qp-uw/v-deo.html

And they drove on the wrong side thru the round about
At 8:20 .
They drove across the small roubdabot at 7:10...
A few years ago there was an accident during a similar heavy transport. The linked video shows the situation: ua-cam.com/video/W7FIM-sOW2U/v-deo.htmlsi=9FxG3edrDJ60t17p Best wishes from northern Germany.

Just saying with you talking about how you like Volvo trucks and cars, they are actually completely different companies. The might share the same origin and name, but other than that have nothing to do with each other and haven't had for decades.
you got the wrong Maxdorf. It's the one near Salzwedel in northern East Germany (52°46'52.2"N 11°12'23.1"E).
4:44 those are the control handles for leveling the trailer
