Hauling farm trailers in style

 Farm trailers, usually confined to fields and towed by farm tractors, are not seen on the highways. Unless that is they are imports and must be transported from the Port of Halifax to dealers in central Canada. In that case the are not towed on their own tires, but are lashed down on flatbeds, such as the ones I saw today, September 1.

Fliegl trailers are built in Germany, and this Taurus Fox model is getting the royal treatment with a tag axle equipped Western Star en route to Quebec. The driver was giving it a very careful height measurement.


Directly behind was a Freightliner (the view was blocked by other trailers) with a Smyth Field Master Hi-Speed 20 wagon, built in Ireland.
