MAN TGA 41-530 DFVD 8x4/4 tractor and Goldhofer SPZ-DL 6 6-axle flatbed ballast carrier semi-trailer (Conrad models) loaded with 49.3 tonnes Richter Maschinenteile AG steel plates (Ladeguter Bauer modified load(*)),



Note*: the load was originally part of a Ladeguter Bauer assembly made of 3 scale O loads: two of 49.3 tonnes and one of 102 tonnes (as per my calculation with 7.85 tonnes/m3 steel specific gravity). The unique support frame was removed and replaced here by 3 wooden beams.
