Wonder what this load was-HAZMAT

The trailer was full size, It reminded me of a heaven duty trailer they would haul extremely heavy loads on, it was just short in length.

It did not look like any septic thanks I've seen, most that I've seen around this part of the country is made out of concrete, not metal.

It did look like the tank was built very strong, & if cut into it would have made a very large cooker, you would be cooking for 1,000 to 2,000 people.

 

The trailer look much like this one. But the container did not look like this one. The shape of it reminded me of a 250 gallon butane tank, but built out of much thicker materiel.

 

I wish I had wrote down the numbers on the placard of the truck I saw. I remember clearly, the placards diamond shaped & white in color. At that time I mentioned it to my wife as we passed by this truck & she looked at it too, & both of us believes the numbers we saw were "272."

I believe we say at least 3 placards from backside & the drivers side of that tralier with those numbers on them, this was between the 18 mile marker & the 0 miles marker, State Line at Texarkana on I-30.

Back in the 70's before the placards junk came out I hauled quite a bit of feterlier during the farming seasons, many times Ammonia Nitrate, from Little Rock & or Pine Bluff, yet there was not much thought about the dangers.

I think they have gotten a bit silly on some of this, I can't even go to the local farm store & buy a bag of Ammonia Nitrate no more. But they said I could buy it in bulk. I always would buy a bag or two of Ammonia Nitrate to spread on my yard about every other year. It seems to help my Saint Augustine grass making it look very good. But no more.

 

That is the link I posted, & stated, the trailer looked like that trailer, but the container did not look like that container. As in my other post, "The shape of it reminded me of a 250 gallon butane tank, but built out of much thicker materiel."
