Thanks man.

My Chevy would pull it but we'd need to borrow my parent's goose neck trailer and I ain't got a gooseneck hitch. You come up with a truck, I can come up with a trailer and I'll do half the driving.

Oh, and you need that $10K too, preferably not in a post dated two party out of state check. We could leave your boat as ransom.

Too late, Bwana....Bucky found a monkey vine to swing on from one side of his ditch, to the other. ;)

Had a buddy who did the same thing with an old, decommissioned (18-wheeler) flatbed trailer. Hauled it out to the creek crossing, backed it across, dropped it, shoved it into place with a dozer, pulled the wheels/tires off of it, built an abutment with some logs, pushed some dirt into both ends and had a perfect bridge that you could drive a D-9 Cat over if you wanted to. Makes a really slick bridge and I would think a flatbed trailer would be much cheaper to buy and transport than a rail car.

Makes more sense really as you can pull it to wherever you want it, then simply pull the wheels off once you get it set up.
