I ran that same model for about five years. I'll give you a tip on making it easier to load/offload. Lock out the four wheel steering. You can operate the front, or rear axle separately. When both ends are steering, it's hard to to keep the machine straight, and you increase the chances of running off the ramps, or worse. Even when I was taking it on or off the rails, I'd lock out one of the axles. That machine brings back some memories for sure. That machine kills tires, but the grooving is normal. It actually increases the overall traction because it allows a bigger contact patch with the rail.
Top reason to own a Shuttlewagon 8040. You can add a few stools and turn the center console into bar ! Doing burnouts with the rail wheels down, you can leave your mark for an even longer time !
Well it looks like the time to find a parking place and wait for better road conditions. Use the generator or APU to avoid idling the truck? And turn on the heater and stay warm and watch a good video. And leave the 101,000 heavy load where it is until the trailer floor is free from ice. Bee safe and know your limitations..!!..
That jeep is a hastle on /off- big air hose to release brakes- wheels on landing legs oldschool trailers had them -chain on truck pull on pull off -no money no waiting etc.. just a thought must be a way to do it fairly easily and cheeply on youre own /.
Hey Sergei !! Well ,it's on the trailer & tied down facing backward according to the instructions you got ,but a Shipper Employee drove it on ?? Anyhows,, Where'd you end up at to stay until the storm passed so you could leave MO. . ?? Have a GOOD trip back to Canada !!!
@@marchalpeck470 I understand but he does not like carry any kind of tarp or dealing with them. In cases like that sand would probably be a possible choice.
Looks like your loadin the space shuttle headed to the moon how cheap could they be to help you load it good thing i didnt buy that machine i d tell them to stick it you know were because not helpin ya

Sergio kickin' ass...way to go! MAKE THE MONEY!
Great video, at least they kept the basic operating instructions, and, loading requirements down to one page, and contact information

Pipe to the rail wheel is for sand delivery to add traction
And there was a sand tank too.
I love the load, great combination of trucks and trains!

Epic!
I got around there yesterday, glad I got past KC before it all started.
Got some snow out there I see nothing but rain in southern Alabama
It looks top heavy as heck..
LOL i drive a train, very similar braking system. Thats very cool, can go on road or on rails.
Way to go hiding the camera Sergei, Nice work man!!
I'd tell the customer you owe me 2 days for detention before I move my truck..
♥️
Back on or back off?
The aerodynamic design could be somewhat better, methinks.
Top speed?
Suggestion could you cover your desk with a tarp to keep snow and ice off when empty
I do not think he wants to carry tarps and have to deal with them.
@@JohnSmith-ug5ci I meant just a cheap tarp, to put over the empty deck to keep snow and ice off while parked. That all I was thinking

@@JohnSmith-ug5ci would give him something to throw
you ever tried cleaning a 30 ft long tarp with ice & snow stuck on it?
HOW MUCH ICE SEND HUGS TO YOUR PUBLIC FROM OUTSIDE BRAZIL
Серёг ну мечтал же стать МАШИНИСТОМ!!!Вот тебе пожалуйста!!!!

Those are all electric.. 6 huge battery packs.. I do air conditioning maintenance on them
Some are turbo diesels. The one I operate is at least

sometimes less help is better, he does a lot of loading himself, or with only one person helping
+1
That's bs they can't help load
