When I was working on the Mianus River bridge they would haul the 100' beams with no trailer.
Just a dolly on the back end of the beam.

That seems pretty crazy.
I wonder how many miles that driver traveled in reverse?

I have no idea but it was huge. Unfortunately this was before I had a camera phone. They were getting on Rt9 going north from Rt5/15N.
