Thank you for posting this and keeping us updated. Quite an impressive salvage operation, in a tight space.

In Norway, they sometimes transport transformers on roads and ships, due to remote locations. ( and accidents have also happened, but it was scraped on site) But they have managed to transport them on surprisingly narrow and curvy roads.

The "smaller" ones that came first were used for removal of an overturned wagon, 2 of them could also lift the transformer, but with a lot of risk, so it was decided to bring the biggest one (the transport of the disassembled one required 30 tow trucks!) After all, the smaller ones were used to assemble the biggest one, these days there will be work again to disassemble and transport everything.

Crane's maximum capacity is often at very close distances (and often not very usable). On the Goliath its 7,5m

Messrs. Ponikvar and Dremelj have published a commendable pdf about everything that happened and resolved regarding the overturning of the wagon with transformer in the Zidan most- linkThere is a lot of information and pictures about the station itself, special wagons and cranes! (The text is in Slovenian, but pictures and technical data do not need translation)
