But that was very empty, huge amounts of materials, furniure, food fuel etc have all been put inside. Then away from the main modules there are other buildings, towers, the garage, the vehicles and the fuel dumps.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335367037419395331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7106869722901382132.post-65358963345772663712012-01-30T07:58:16.283+00:002012-01-30T07:58:16.283+00:00Hello Brendan,

The Red module was pulled with one John Deere, two Challenges and had two bulldozers to give a starting shove from behind - that's about 1000HP. We actually get about 5% less power than this because we run the vehicles on aviation diesel which doesn't freeze.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335367037419395331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7106869722901382132.post-13990234988810858382012-01-29T14:21:33.113+00:002012-01-29T14:21:33.113+00:00how much horsepower do the trackters that pull hal...how much horsepower do the trackters that pull hally vl havebrendannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7106869722901382132.post-62926070475740926372012-01-29T12:51:14.823+00:002012-01-29T12:51:14.823+00:00how much would the base weigh alltogetherhow much would the base weigh alltogetherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
