A transport system for transporting a wind turbine blade on first and second railcars that serve as load cars. A root end fixture on the first railcar is connected to a root end portion of the wind turbine blade. A mid-frame fixture on the second railcar supports a reinforced midsection of the wind turbine blade using a pair of support saddles. A tip end fixture restrains a tip end portion of the wind turbine blade against lateral movement outside of a preselected range of movement in opposite lateral directions and causing bending of the blade about the mid-frame fixture when the restraint device imparts sufficient restraining force to the tip end portion of the blade.

Methods and systems for modular fuel storage and transportation are provided. In an embodiment, a fuel storage system includes one or more fuel containers each supported by a fuel container support assembly. The fuel storage system may be mounted to a transportation device such as a vehicle or used in a stand-alone fashion. Each support assembly may include a plurality of detachable end support members such as end support members configured to support the end portions of the fuel container and side support members configured to support the body portion of the fuel container. Some of the end support members may include neck grooves such that when the end support members are coupled, the neck grooves form an enclosure around the neck portion of the fuel container. In an embodiment, the support assembly is configured to facilitate release of excess pressure in the fuel container.

A device for the transport of long-welded rails by way of a rail loading train, including an installation for the secured storage of the rails. The device is configured as a modular unit it has fastening devices for anchoring on a container flat car and includes a separate energy supply unit.

A system for securing large, heavy cylindrical cotton bales on a trailer, the system using front and rear support frames reversibly attached to a trailer bed with a plurality of spaced apart middle support frames therebetween. The middle support frame consists of a top frame and a bottom frame wherein the bottom frame is reversibly attached to the trailer bed. The top and bottom frames are connected to each other with a vertical side beam and with spaced apart angled beams. The front end and rear ends of the top frame are connected to each other with top cross beams. The spaced apart angled beams form retaining spaces causing at least some of the surface of a bale to become embedded in the retaining spaces, thereby preventing sideways, forward and backward movement of the bale. A retaining bar attached rotatably to the vertical side beams also prevents sideways movement.

A cargo securing to secure a plurality of cargo items upon a truck bed includes a pair of hingedly connected plates which work in conjunction with an existing cargo strap to secure a load. During installation, the existing cargo strap is wrapped around the load of cargo, is routed through aperture portions of the device, and the ends of the cargo strap are secured to the truck bed. The aperture portions of the device have edge guards which act to protect the cargo strap from damage.
