    This reminds me I forgot to take a picture of one of the sign boards on Pena leaving DIA. Everything in Colorado is at least 16' and there's a crease at least a foot deep in the bottom of the sign enclosure that's pretty obviously from a trackhoe boom.

    There is nothing wrong here. It's the best quick pic I could get. But if you zoom in, I think you will recognize the company logo. BTW with that big expensive custom trailer. They both only loaded a single 41k coil.

    They’re coil trailers. The box enclosure slides out of the way and they have wells that the coils sit down in. Never used one so I don’t know how they secure the coils but there’s a fair amount of them running around up here in the Great Lakes area. Area Transportation is the outfit I see most often with them

    It is a custom coil trailer. Note the beam is quite big. It should have a well that the coil will sit down in. The cover you see slides back to gain access to the coils inside, you can see the slides for the cover on the rear portion of the deck.
