For those interested the ABC Wimmera had some drone shots of that load but I could not find them.
I think they have been lost into the interspace or maybe they are just exclusive to FB or some other social media.

Lovely bit of gear there Craig, with 20 rows of 8.(2 sets of 10 axles) Back in the early 1980s these Commetto platform trailers did a lot of work in NZ for Dales Freightways. There was a total 24 rows of 8 ( 2 sets of 12 axles) with two Scammell prime movers and a modified Michigan loader powering it all. All wheels were steerable and the trailers were fully adjustable so they were able to be always kept level for stability purposes. From memory the load was 270 ton, but long time ago so not sure any more? Big gear! Cheers
