(Lukens Mill #1334) The four plates are 9/16' x 78' x 77'5-1/2' of Open Hearth Structural Steel. The estimated weight of one of these plates is 12,138# and three cars were required for their transportation. Our Company had to arrange for their movement when very little traffic was moving over the Railroad by which these plates had to travel. To attempt to move these plates around a Railroad curve when another train was on the curve could only result disastrously. Consequently, the tracks had to be practically clear for the movement of these 4 plates.'
