Those A.L.E. trojan horses are sooo cool. To be honest the whole setup is amazing.... apart from the fence, still they're probably insured...and it gives the highway lads some work ! ;))
Probably not as many as you'd think, when you consider that many locomotives and dumper trucks are either electric or diesel-electric (where the diesel engine drives a generator and motors drive the wheels). There are 3300hp diesel-electric locos in use in the UK and 5400hp electric locos.
Electric motors have incredible torque right though their power range.... the problem will be where will the power come from??? I suspect hybrid systems will be used with very clean smaller generator motors...
There are SO many things they can hit from all posible sides of the vehicle(s) that they need to make sure everything is clear (walls, Traffic lights, buildings or anything that can damage the vehicle or the cargo)
That's LWB for the V5 (if your sure?) and NOT social, domestic and pleasure for the insurance then.. Ill just check the oil and tyre pressures all around or as far as the gauge will reach?.. See you in a while.... Which windscreen did you want washed again? Thunderbirds are GO!! Mighty strong ALE indeedy..
It is *smarter* to break the fence, because it makes the customer happy if he gets that thing with delay to the destination. It is *safer* for everybody, because it gets that thing off the road fast. And it is definitely *stronger* than that fence. SCNR :-D
We use movement orders in this country, if that is deemed the best route then that is usually the beat route available which may mean having to remove certain street furniture to begin with.
That trailer has been a round for a very long time. ALE grew out of GEC Distribution Services and that trailer was in use by them in the 1980s. I drove one of the big Fauns with that rig around the site roads at GEC Trafford Park in 1990 or thereabouts
You want your load as low as possible to fit underneath the bridges. You can't have tires under your load. You want to use 28 axles (hope i did not miscount) to spread your load not to crush the road underneath. This way you end up with an unpropelled trailer with a weight of 165t which can carry up to 500t. Any shorter configuration would either lift the load or have less axles. The trucks are heavy, but they basically don't count. If ever they would exceed your weight restrictions on a bridge, you attach them with a longer boom or winch the trailer and the trucks easily fit wherever the trailer fits. Often they tow an additional truck just to be on the safe side.

And some people can't get a tiny car around a corner safely!!
Those guys are amazing, thanks for posting. 👍
Shame the camera wasn't moved to somewhere further from the fence to allow us to see more clearly what was happening on that corner.
id love to see it being unloaded and lifted into place, that is a beast load.
i wonder how many all electric trucks would be needed to do this job? seeing as they want only eletric vehicles by 2023 in the UK!!

@@AintBigAintClever BUT i was talking about the government wanting only all electric vehicles by 2023, NOT DIESEL/ELECTRIC .
well in the 950s and 1960s we were talking of NUCLEAR cars. so there's hope yet XD
With electric trucks, each axle has its own motor on axle itself. From what I've heard, they're more powerful, not less.

9.43, that's my mate Shane driving the Tyre van, earns his money, I'll tell you ..
Great footage. Wonder why so many complete stops. Are the tractors automatics or is there a clutch taking all the massive load ?
Allison automatics mate.

Have you finished checking the tyres yet mate?
When and where was this brilliant record shot?
Keith Letchford in Newcastle under Lyme
Have they invented tripods or even mono-pods yet?
There you next episode? I would like to read on.
Stupid woman in the way! clueless 5:20
Megusta ese trabajo yo trabaje asiendoeso moviendo cosas enormes
OOPS!!
God damm it crazy camara-!
👍🇬🇧
Looks like Aylesbury...no I tell a lie
it said smarter safer stronger
.it broke the fence

SCNR :-D
Mach Tony I was about to say the same thing about it being stronger
chazer 1234 Well, stronger anyway..

You should show them how to do it........
See those trailes are built just for maybe 1 time use not that one but some are spend a mill to move a transformer just in building a trailer

Too many problems on the way
my girl friend told if it don't fit don't force it. nice video exxellent video
Lonnie Nambe lmao
use your finger first :v
Lonnie Nambe yeah right like you ever had that problem
Why do they need such large trucks?, all the trucks and equipment used to haul one of these loads looks heavier then the actual load itself.
You want your load as low as possible to fit underneath the bridges. You can't have tires under your load.

than not then
No0ne69 _ nowhere near, the load will be in the 300-400 ton range
Kiki
Not properly plan move
What???
