March 3 - Barnhart Crane & Rigging has transported and installed a 370,000-lb (167-tonne) transformer from a railyard in Cuba, Missouri to Centerville in the US state.
Barnhart offloaded the transformer, which measured 28.8 ft x 11.5 ft x 16.1 ft (8.7 m x 3.5 m x 4.9 m), from the railcar and onto a girder bridge trailer using a jack and slide system, ready for the 70 mile (112.6 km) delivery overland.
On arrival in Centerville, Barnhart used another jack and slide system to unload the transformer onto its foundation.
