    Yep they did some real creative routing, going past the plant to SP then back to Va City. This is probly the same bunch that was in charge of getting this crane to the site. By taking it from Coeburn down 72 through Dungannon across Mew road to Castlewood then back to the site. Instead of just going straight on down 58 another 8 miles to the site.

    The date on that the pictures say 7/16/2008 so I am guessing that is not the generator transport.

    Barnahart transports a lot of things like this and from cell towers to nuclear reactors...as elp6n said they've mapped and planned things out well beforehand, maybe its an easier entry, don't know. Overall route looks like the best option easily. Now it should mainly fall on those ahead of it getting things prepared.
