Big Floating Crane

This crane was used to replace an old bridge across and really wide body of water. Double bonus: check out the big mountains behind it!

Big Power Stripping Machine

84th Avenue bridge deck - 5, originally uploaded by Washington State Dept of Transportation.

This big machine strips the pavement off a road...with water! I've never seen anything like this before; have you?

This will help road crews lay down new pavement on a road, by removing most of the old pavement first. It will help the new pavement last longer, and that will save them lots of money.

Awesome!

This big machine can move dirt, rock, mud, sand, or anything else that is super heavy. In this picture, it is helping clear a road that was covered in mud!

Big Jet Powered Truck

This is an old pickup truck that is powered by a real Jet engine! Can you imagine how loud that is? They are also very fast. These kinds of trucks go to shows around the USA to show their tremendous power and fire.

Wow!
