Also not filtering foreground objects when I'm looking around. And thinking about harmony in tone. Good film will make ya do that.
Push and pull. A surprising number of drivers didn't seem to get the part of lots of cops and conspicuous flashing light stuff meaning stop. Wait. - While 330,000 pounds isn't the same thing as a railroad train, this rig did need a little time to come to speed and to stop.
An issue for moving large loads is how heavy the powered vehicle must be to stick to the ground, rather than sit there and spin its wheels. Railroad locomotives are built this way; they could be much lighter, but need the weight to remain coupled to the rails. These Kenworth cabs carry a fair amount of "stuff" over the drive wheels where weight isn't a bad thing.
Excellent photographs and commentary, Chris! Can't wait for more images!
