    This is parked about a half mile from my place, 18 lines of Goldhofer, and an 8-axle low bed RR car. From what I can tell this is probably a piece for one of the local power plants based off of WEG's product lines. Any idea of the weight of this piece to require 18 lines of Goldhofer or an 8-axle RR car?

    I've been told over here we can run about 15 tonnes a line on the road use, but up to 45 tonnes a line for off road use.

    Usally when the stinger takes all the weight in a dip, something is going to break or bend or pop!!!

    Usually but not always, I saw an M85 Manitowoc about go over because of it.

    I have quick release valves installed on my stinger. Get to a preset pressure and they will dump air where and when needed. I won't own one but I like the way the hydrogen stingers work in that case.

    Yeah I'm not sure I want one but I wouldn't mind trying a nitrogen booster, it would make backing up empty nice.

    ETNYER trailer has a stinger setup that flips all the way over when empty with hydro pins and all. THAT would be the perfect setup. Except for the manufacturer. If trail king or Fontaine came out with that, I would be ordering one in a split second!!
