You could drop down US83 South at Childress, TX to Abilene on I-20 then over to Stephanville. A few miles further but faster.

If the railroad ever decides to unload the train, it'll be 70/287/281

Don’t worry about size in Texas - Texas allows trailers upto 59’ long with out permit.
I have run 285’ long blade
Loads through Stephenville on 281 - so no issues on any of those roads around there -

Those new electric pumps look heavy as hell
@North Pole NightmareNorth Pole Nightmare Thanks this. -
So, I used this following 'rule of thumb' to figure out if it was worth it to go down backroads:
Paved backroads: You'll only average about 40 mph, so they will take about 1 1/2 times as long to traverse per mile
Dirt backroads: You'll average about 30 mph, so it'll take you twice as long to cover the mileage. -
I haven't hauled one or heard what the weights are,but they are heavy.Need Texas permits and designated route to move them.

287/281 would be my choice and I think would be the fastest best route.
I love the I-25 south through Raton also but check the weather through Raton pass.
I love Texas farm roads nearly every one I’ve taken has been great.
