How to Load an Inoperable Caboose Onto a Step Deck
Trailer
In order to avoid overheight limitations, which can cause issues when going
under bridges and powerlines, Dan opted for the team to take the caboose of the wheels
and transport them separately. He contracted an exceptional and highly-rated rigging
company to come out and load the caboose.
Dan oversaw each step as the rigging secured the caboose to raise it off the
rails and onto the step deck trailer. Everything went smoothly and according to plan.
Once the team safely loaded the caboose, they secured it with ratchet straps
for the journey. Dan double and triple-checked the caboose transport before giving the
driver the okay to embark on the 105.8 mile journey from Edwards Air Force Base to
Perris, California.
Safely Delivering The Caboose to Perris,
California
After the prep, planning, and loading, the driver took off. Because the
distance was so short, the Caboose was a same-day transport.
A storage unit in Perris, California, will be the home of the caboose for
next year. Then, it’ll be transported to Joshua Tree National Park as its permanent
residence. The client is converting it into a tiny home. That's pretty cool!
The client fully intends to contact Dan to finish the transport.
