 Wagons, Ho! Top on Way

 

 

Plattsmouth – The 50 ton top of the reactor for Hallam’s atomic power plant began the overland part of its journey Friday morning.

 

The part was shipped into Plattsmouth by barge, and is now being trucked to Hallam.  The truck trip is expected to take 2 ˝  to 3 days.

 

The truck slowly moved south out of Plattsmouth and then west on State Highway Q, a gravel road, according to the Cass County superintendent’s office.

 

The matching component of the top, a reactor vessel, followed the same route last summer.  It rolled from a truck into a cornfield but was finally rescued.
