I hope the money is good. Nice that they offered to pay the wrecker. These are the most interesting loads. You take your time, try not to stress the things that aren't perfect - that's why you make the big bucks :) One way or another you work it out, get it done and deliver. Safe travels Captain

[@austinhaynes5127]

I was the other driver that was in there with the silver Pete 4 axle! I move them on a weekly bases so I'm extremely quick about them! And mine was only 60,000lbs. I set the lift axle down once I get out to the main road. 6 chained it and rolled out!

[@dalebraun5497]

Welcome back to Iowa Sergei. You drive well and scouting out the roundabout was a good thing.

[@pauljohn6637]

She isn’t going to move now. Chains galore. Stay safe and warm. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇸

My nephew is in the middle of training to operate one of those for the railroad in laporte texas

[@chrislucy1589]

Really refreshing to see you take time to do things carefully and make sure you are satisfied with the final results. Keep on trucking Captain!!

[@jamesbagos3459]

Sergei you just proved the importance of truckers, even the railroad moves by truck😂

[@vaughnhill3437]

Pit boards under the train wheels and lower them .that will help take the softness from the rubber tires.

[@stephenhunter70]

one of which appears to be de-flating!

[@deloreandmc9600]

Cool load good to see clear roads :)

[@SHUB281]

I live here in KC. I hate that stupid roundabout. But never thought about a truck and trailer having to negotiate it. Great job !

[@beckster181]

When I was doing truck driving in the military they used to call that first load check and tightening the load settling adjustment as no matter how tight you tie things down when first loaded they will still settle a bit once you get on the road and bounce the load abit, the problem is most people never do it they load up their trailers or trucks tie it down (sort of) think its good and go for it and never check it again. When carrying a load of any kind I (like the Captain) over do it with tie downs and make tight then in the first hour i will stop at 30 min and then at 60 min to check tightness and thrn every sto i make i will recheck them again.In over 40 years of driving i have never lost any part of a load the worst i have happened is some kitchen chairs i had on a trailer once worked loose and when i hit a bump they managed to flip out of trailer but were still held to it bu the tie down, they never touched the road and i saw them straight away in the side mirror . the tie down was still tight as but the bump had allowed something to move which let them flip somehow.

[@rickdewitt600]

I know its tough for you, been there done that, smaller, this was fun to watch, making those turns.............😎😎😎😎

[@wideslammer]

Thanks for showing us how you secured this strange load.

[@russelltrupia4479]

One heck of a chain job Captain, have a safe trip.

[@rons4778]

The chains and binders in the toolbox do absolutely nothing better to have a spiders web

[@hdtraincam]

very enjoyable video series on moving this piece of rail equipment...keep up the good work

[@Jesse-le9bh]

Like the concern you have for load securement. Safe travels.

[@jeffclark2725]

Those round abouts are bigger than some of them around here in Washington State, was concerned about the tires going up and over the inside and outside curbs and stressing the tires, Truck and trailer did fine, Good travels, looking forward to the unload

[@whitevanman8703]

Just a suggestion, don't put wood under the wheels, put wood under the railway wheels and lower them so you have more contact between the shuttle and the trailer. Also that will allow better angles on the chains.

[@anthonyrstrawbridge]

Great video Mr. Dratchev As a viewer who knows nothing about the shipping rates for this load I find myself wanting to double the rate. It's like a battle between trailer strength vs 87 swinging tons in a tug of war contest. Take care of yourself.

[@ehsnils]

For future similar transports - replace some wood on the deck with rail tracks! 😊

[@fundsfordad]

Cool load 👍 safe travels !

[@XxkillertychicusxX]

Fun to watch. Good job!

[@jerrykolosinsky4615]

Good job captin

[@pvillehick67]

Don’t go to port of entry Canadian truckers have blockaded.

[@jeffclark2725]

I was wondering the situation with that, Kinda hard not to be noticed with that truck

[@alvarogaitan2529]

thanks, Sergei fantastic job my friend, and good luck forever God Bless.

[@amelierenoncule]

Query: The reason for the chains becoming slack, on both sides, and needing to be re-tightened, is that the chains, themselves, 'stretch', or the onboard vehicle's suspension settles down-ward ?

[@HHTV60]

the major factor is WHEELS. any heavy machine that has wheels likes to rock a little. you need more chains and they have to be properly positioned.

[@amelierenoncule]

@@HHTV60 The 'rocking' therefore being a product of the pneumatic tyres/suspension. I understand.

[@tegveersinghchahal1258]

When ur planning to service ur truck. Did u check ur engine air filter !!! They always broken in winter due to mositure

[@nathantodd7433]

Keep on trucking, east bound and down.

[@IsMise]

Can still hear the cold in your voice Go safe

[@howardsmith1111]

But don't suggest he blow his nose - that guy from previous video got banned!!

[@pvillehick67]

The shipper should provide buckets for the rail wheels to lowered into.

[@anthonytrevino341]

Some loads you can’t wait to unload

[@montanamornings8526]

Is that grunting in Russian. Haha. Sounded like it. Nice job Captain out on those roads. They’re bad right now. Lots of ice.

[@barryhumphrey153]

It looks like the person from the company that loaded the unit did not follow their own directions as to the cab being towards the front of trailer! Is that because they wrote the direction for a different type of trailer?

[@HHTV60]

no, I told them it was too dangerous. even driving thing on took an hour of back and forth. it's a hard machine to load.

[@barryhumphrey153]

@@HHTV60 Thanks

[@alandouglas5563]

I run a 9 axle : steer & 2+2+2+2. I get similar fuel to you on similar weight loads.

[@HHTV60]

I like 2+2 for the extra allowance. I like 3+1 for practicality and ease of use (when you have to back up). A 2+2 setup would definitely work better with this heavy locomotive.

[@alandouglas5563]

@@HHTV60 you’re right about the backing up, I’ve have to lock my booster first. Which means being straight. Can cause some bad words in the cab!!

[@randyknighton772]

My company bought a baby shuttle wagon that I moved from South Dakota to Texas. It only weighs 30000 lbs

[@VideosByAl]

At least Iowa has dry roads.

[@bobstanlake8606]

Great video on chaining ! Next career Hollywood ???

[@whitevanman8703]

I am wondering if the fellow who took the machine from Canada to Missouri for repair turned down the job of taking it back.

[@rickbcfl]

Hi Sergei, As you are a seasoned trucker, do you have any plans on retiring or would you be doing this until you final breath?

[@HHTV60]

need to pay off the truck and trailer first. retirement equals death. if I quit trucking, I'll start another business.

[@rickbcfl]

@@HHTV60 I'm an engineer of 28 years, just can't see me wanting to do anything else in my life. You'd properly be doing this even after the debts are cleared up too. 😁

[@jamesbagos3459]

Sergei won’t retire, like Merle Haggards song White line Fever he’s got the fever in his soul
