Mega Transports season 2 episode 6, "Power Generator," follows the transportation of a massive power generator from its manufacturing site to its final destination. The generator weighs over 600 tons and must travel over 900 miles, presenting a unique set of challenges for the team responsible for its transport.
In order to move the generator, the team utilizes a variety of specialized equipment, including a hydraulic jack system capable of lifting the generator off the ground and a specially-designed transporter capable of supporting its weight. The team also must coordinate with local authorities to ensure that the generator can safely navigate through city streets and highways without disrupting traffic or causing any damage.
