Default Interesting wreck on I-79 in WV

Just came past this wreck just south of Fairmont on I-79. From the way it looks, the steerable section of a supersize load went haywire. The tractor was still on the highway but the trailer and load were completely off of the highway. They've got one crane there already and a DOT officer I ran into when I parked said that they may have to bring in a second one for the lift. Wish I could've gotten my camera out faster.

Went past it again this morning and saw that the entire trailer setup is still sitting in the same location. They off-loaded the (what I think was a) transformer onto another trailer. Bet that's gonna be a hefty bill.
