Seriously Out Of Gauge
On 15 August 2016, special transport vessel (a converted tanker) Zhen Hua 20 is moored at the dolphins off the Airbus works at Hamburg Finkenwerder with a cargo of three container bridges for Hamburg's Burchardkai Terminal.
She had to travel up the Elbe river at low tide and with the booms down in order to slip through under the power lines at Stade without shorting them out.
Here she can be seen raising the booms, as with the booms down, she would be too wide to make it into Waltershofer Hafen basin to discharge her load.
And, talking about special transports, in the background on shore, a "Super Guppy" transport airplane can be seen which carried Airbus parts between the different Airbus works before the current Beluga took over.
