But you still have reactor fuel. The anti nuclear power people just never understand that medical reactors use the same fuel.

Yea. That is really odd to me. We have 200 ton transformers transported every Tuesday and Thursday. One tryck 3 escort vehicles. Total crew of 4 dueds

@buckhornz2184 Modern trucks are typically designed to handle 15% inclination. If the truck is sold as to pull 150 tons (that there are standard trucks that do) then they will do so at 15%

110 tons? That is like a normal load. Here we use the same tractor trucks for normal load and machine transport up to 150 ton. Just one

@arthurhucksake2665 i kind of doubt anyone will steal it.

@arthurhucksake2665 I think that is government bissyboddying. If we want to be totaly honest about this. Nobody cares even a tiny bit about used fuel from an medical reactor. Not at all. Its when its a nuclear power reactor when its competing with gas and coal that suddenly there is tons of people against it.. professional activist (that is, people who get payed). Think about this in the news section. "Used fuel from a medical nuclear reactor today blocked by environmentalist, the fuel is used in a medical reactor to generate isotopes to treat cancer." Nopp, its not going to happen. Non of them really care about the nuclear fuel. Not what so ever.

@Holt110 normaly trucks are tested at 15% grade, so 10% should really not be a problem.

@2old2growup you have fallen for som class A BS

@dkinclonberne have you seen the nuclear flask crash test? When they first run a train into it at 160km/h and then put it on fire wirh diesel for an hour. And the flask is still sealed. The locomotive was totaly wreakes
