Entire 30-series all in a row

This 30-series "train" was displayed at Goessel, KS today. They were all hitched end-to-end and the lead 830 pulled the line-up through the parade. They tracked surprisingly well around the corners. It looked like it took very careful packaging to get them all on one semi trailer.

Had a set like those out at Expo several years ago. They will not fit on one 53 foot trailer at one time. You can get four Waterloo tractors on one and five if two are Dubuque's. I think in this case you could lap the 630 and 530 as they have narrow fronts and then lap the little one's and make it work. To lap the small ones you would need two drivers at one time and a good loading dock.

We put 5 pulling tractors in a 53 ft. fan all the time. A, 2 G's, M Farmal, 400 Farmal.

And how many of those 5 pulling tractors have wide frt axles? None probably which makes a huge difference in space required.
 
Was commenting on his statement only. [You can get four Waterloo tractors on one and five if two are Dubuque's.]

4 of ours have 18-4's on them plus they all have weight brackets and wheely bars hanging out also.
 
I didn't get a picture of the load but do know that all six were on one trailer. Unfortunately the moment before I was going to snap the picture I got a phone call and obviously a call trumps a picture on a cell phone and I missed the chance. By the time I got back he was half unloaded already. Should have snapped one of the two Dubuque models as they were the last to come off. They were also nested like the 530 and 630, probably because both had the front axles set very narrow. From front to back it was the 330/430 nested, 530/630 nested, 730, then the 830.
 
Brenden,
That would be very doable when the 630 and 530 have the narrow fronts. Mine were all standard models with wide front ends and had to end up taking an extra trailer and pickup to get the whole set to Waterloo.
