Thats beautiful, nice catch! Edit- what phone/camera are you using?
It will always be there😇
@@electricenergy nature is so beautiful, god is an artist 🙏
I choose to believe that, at the start of the video, the transformer is being carried by that forklift. And I don't care what anyone says. 😂
Glad to see more local places on CZcams, love visiting the bicentennial tower it’s almost never busy when I go, and you get to see all the cool boats. Thanks for sharing!
Your Welcome
Nice!
Looks like the "left overs" of a old Haliburton cementing truck in the background.
I visited it as a kid. Scary but helpful.
Nice catch, I’m surprised that the light pound rail could handle that weight
Keep in mind, a normal everyday loaded 4-axle freight car weighs 100-135 tons.
Looks like they welded everywhere except on the doubler plates
The "weld on doubler plate only" notice only applies to the angled part of the deck. Welding on the main flat deck is fine.
Cool scene, big stuff on a specialized flat car in the grass and trees . Very Cool
Aerial photographs I've reviewed over the years showed many large substations used to have rail spurs into them.
There is one about 2 miles from me. I've never seen them move anything down it. Just cars stored there. Its about 3/4 of a mile long.
Can recall many years back a transformer on a flatcar in Portland .
You must lead a sad life.
Looks like it was sitting for a while.
No more than a couple of days. The wheel faces do start to show rust pretty quickly.
A good way to shatter a coupler!
Er, what is?
Not sure about the function of the short line that ends up in the bushes ( ? ) ....... DAVE™🛑
They deliver covered hoppers full of nuts for the squirrels. :nodnod:
@@beeble2003 ... Of course , how silly that I did not spot this ( but , it might be true ? ) , after all this is the USA 😝.... possibly a Republican corporate tax dodge ( ? ) ..... DAVE™🛑
Same as certain loads on freight ships weld the load to the deck no chance of movement absolutely top notch.
Super. Grease those flanges. 💙 T.E.N.
Very cool!
Thank heavens you're not a vandal, the damage you could have done.
They obviously feel that it's a sufficiently out-of-the-way location that vandalism is unlikely.
Noticed to the Right there's A Flatcar Parked in the Weeds; How Long That's been There?
I don't see a coupler, so not sure what that is all overgrown. I am more interested in that than the transforner!
I see the load is well protected from vandals.
They obviously feel that vandalism in that location is unlikely enough.
are those blocks of concrete stacked on the corners of the railcar? Are they ballast? That's quite a bit of weight!
They're for counterbalancing the load. Large substation transformers do not have centers of gravity that line up with the centerlines of the vehicles that carry them. The three large cores inside are just off center. Alone, this would result in the flatcar tipping to one side unacceptably, so the concrete blocks are added to counterbalance this offset. If the transformer case is small enough, however, it could be loaded off center to compensate.
WOW, there's always more to learn....thanks for your reply
It is good to see more and more transformers (?) being shipped nowadays. thanks
One of the best detail videos I’ve seen for modelers.
thanks
What a beast
Interesting how the loaded tranformer is secured too the deck with welded angled steel .Thank you for posting this interesting video, as a model railroader gives detailed examples of how large heavy loads are retained on flat cars.👍
Same as on ships -- it's not going anywhere if it's welded down.
And she whined and complained all the way!!!
Where are we?
Why is it sitting there?
Surprised you didn't walk down behind it around the curve to see the power. There should of been a builders plate on there. Could of panned over to the flatcar in the grass instead of looking at the wheel bottoms 🤔.
The final shot was taken through a chain-link fence. Not a good idea to go trespassing on the railway while there are crews working there.
Thanx for posting! I did leave a thumps up! That was quite something in that all the noise created when it moved!
Cool, thanks
Over the years I've been amazed how these cars have been squeezed down some of the most wretched sidings and branch lines
Location & nearest street crossing please?
Jamessimms read his comment at the heading of this section: he doesn't want the location revealed for the respect and protection of private property!
That looks scary af !!
Yep yep.

Towers from kmbc and kshb
A shared tv tower from kmbc and kshb
Oddly terrifying.
Check the facts here... There is a stand alone television tower at the foot of the KCPT studio at 31st and Grand in Kansas City. This may be that tower, however, it was built decades ago by KCMO-TV (CBS affiliate) Kansas City and was a skyline landmark because there were lights up and down the tower which were lit at night; KCMO changed it's call letters to KCTV before the turn of the decade, and moved to nearby suburb Fairway Ks on Shawnee MIssion Parkway. The studio at 31st and Grand, next to the tall tower was taken over by KCPT Public Television of Kansas City but that station reportedly has a tower of its own elsewhere in the KC Metro. KCTV reportedly continues using its tall tower at 31st. It would not be accurate to call the original stand alone tower "KCPT's tower'.
It's great, sounds complex and interesting
Very nice song, strangely haunting some how
