thanks nice pictures any chance of some
more being posted,ülease

Those Fauns are massive things, passed one in Lancashire on the M6 recently. Personally I like their Unipower. Any more pics would be good.

20 axles!

We’ve had bigger than that in here driver :unamused:

Nice Pics :smiley:

When I saw that ‘T. Cotton’ on the photos I did a double take, I used to work
with him at Econofreight. Then I remembered that was Tommy Cott_er_
an Irishman and a rogue, but one who gave me lots of valuable advice in my
first (untrained) foray into hauling the big stuff :smiley: .

Nice pictures, Tim. :wink:

I’m neither Irish - or a rogue! :wink:

By the way…You’re not imagining it - The Vd Tol crane IS picking up three others…!

Good pics Jazz
I had to look twice at the one with three hanging

Awesome pics. Would love to get behind the wheel of some of those.

Love the one of the three suspended cranes.

The Alstom Unipower pic. is a good example to see how big that thing is, the driver looks tiny.

No ppplllleeeeaaaaassssseeeee not Rob behind the wheel of one of those.

That would scare me to death :laughing:

Am I seeing things or is that Dutch XF (orange & white) a tri steer?

Yep - it is a 5 axle triple steer unit. Special build by Ginaf.

Go to www.ditzj.de and there are pics of it along with the similar unit of Van der Vlist.

Go to ‘trucks’ then ‘Ginaf’. All sorts of heavy :open_mouth: stuff on that site.
