I made a ttte fic! based on these engines:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ant and Bee are small mining engines that pull ore, coal, overburden, and, of course, the mines workers. other engines call them "hobbits" but they know it's all in good fun, and they don't really mean to be rude.
One Day, On The Great Laxey Mine Railway...
"Ant, Bee..." Their Controller Boomed "Yes?" The two asked. "I am buying a new locomotive. They shall arrive soon."
"Do you have any more information?" Bee Asked. "Yes. They Shall Be a Battery Electric Engine. They will be unveiled at Valley Gardens at 6pm." he said. and walked off. Soon, the two were off to work, pulling ore, coal, and overburden from the mines, and workers to the mines. while at the water tower, they talked. "What do you think the new engine's name will be?" Ant asked "maybe fly?" Bee thought "or cockroach?" said Ant. suddenly, they heard a bell
"They must be calling us to see the new engine." the two went to see the new engine. "Hello." the engine said "I am Wasp." "Hello, Wasp! I'm Ant!" "Bleh! you smell horrid!" Wasp said "How Rude!" said Bee "It's true, Ant. have you Been cleaned?" the electric engine asked, "well...only lightly, this is a mining railway." Bee said, "So it would be redundant." They Continued. "speaking of" said Ant. "you have to take these flatbeds." Wasp Bashed into the foolish flatbeds carrying some new thumpers. "OW!" the flatbeds yelled. "We'll pave that green square out...'' they said. "No problem!" Wasp said. Wasp drove recklessly, bashing the flatbeds. though soon, they stopped in the mine. "Alright. unload the thumPAAAAAAAAA-" Screamed Wasp "ON ON!" the flatbeds screamed, and SMASHED into the mine. "OH NO!" said Wasp, as the mine COLLAPSED! the workers were all out, but Wasp Wasnt. "Don't worry!" said Ant. And Them, With Bee, Tied Ropes To Wasp. and pulled "GRRRRRRRRRRRR" after lots of pulling, They Finally Brought Wasp, The Flatbeds, and thumpers out. "now you know not to Bump flatbeds, don't you?" said Bee "Yes, I do..." Wasp said. soon the thumpers were breaking down the rocks, so the engines and miners could get back to work.

Flatbeds: The Ultimate Solution for Transporting Oversized Cargo
When it comes to transporting oversized and bulky items, traditional cargo vehicles often fall short of meeting the demands. That's why flatbeds have become the best solution for safely and efficiently transporting large loads. In this blog, we will explore the benefits and applications of flatbeds and understand why they are the ultimate choice for any transportation needs involving oversized cargo.
Tumblr media
What are flatbeds?
Flatbeds are a type of truck trailer that has a flat and level platform. They are commonly used for hauling oversized items. Unlike enclosed trailers or trucks, flatbeds have an open design, which allows for easy loading and unloading. This makes them well-suited for transporting goods that cannot fit within the limited space of traditional trailers. Flatbeds provide a stable and secure base for transporting a wide range of oversized and unconventional items. The unrestricted loading and unloading capabilities of flatbeds make them a preferred choice for many industries.
The Versatility of Flatbeds
One of the key advantages of flatbeds is their versatility. They can handle a wide range of oversized cargo, including construction materials, machinery, vehicles, and even shipping containers. Their open design allows for easy loading and unloading from any direction, making them the preferred option for industries such as construction, manufacturing, and logistics.
Stability and safety
When transporting large and heavy objects, safety is most important. Flatbeds offer superior stability and security compared to other transportation options. With the absence of walls, the risk of cargo shifting during transit is significantly reduced. Additionally, flatbeds are designed in such a way that they can easily bind the load, ensuring it remains in place throughout the journey, even under challenging road conditions.
Efficiency in Loading and Unloading
Efficiency is crucial in any logistics service. Flatbeds excel in this aspect due to their easy and quick loading and unloading processes. Unlike enclosed trailers that require precise alignment, flatbeds allow for fast and hassle-free loading from various angles. This not only saves valuable time but also reduces the risk of damaging the cargo during the loading and unloading process.

Cost-Effective Solution
Flatbeds offer a cost-effective solution for transporting oversized cargo. Unlike specialized heavy-haul trailers, flatbeds are readily available and can be easily sourced from a variety of transportation providers. Their versatility also allows businesses to utilize their flatbeds for a wide range of transportation needs, reducing the need for multiple specialized trailers and further cutting costs.
Conclusion
Devise logistics play a crucial role in the transportation of oversized cargo. Whether it is construction materials, machinery, or shipping containers, the use of flatbeds provides the necessary reliability and flexibility to accomplish the task. If you want an oversized load to move, it is highly recommended that you consider the undeniable benefits of utilizing our service to fulfill your transportation needs. Our expertise in the field ensures efficient and safe delivery of your cargo, making us the ideal choice for your transportation requirements.

I don't understand why anyone would pay full price for a flatbed truck rental when you can buy 'DETOUR' signs online for like $10.

I'm so angry that the organisers immediately let the next race go ahead while they were still clearing up the accident.
That race was mostly under SC because of the conditions. The race after was cancelled because of conditions and now the next race is going ahead again.

oh so alisaie’s exaggerated bully behavior is 80% fanon. saying this she casually picks up a large rock
#say one thing wrong to me and you will have a wonderful few days with the rock#if angry silly girls have 100 fans etc if they have 0 fans i have died#sorry i saw a YouTube meme i vehemently disliked on principle and got mad at the only child behavior-#kipspeak#she is just short tempered and uses anger to mask other more ‘shameful’ emotions!!! alphy did the same thing with just deciding not#to express them. which is still not good and I think why he breaks and ends up teary so often now#this shortness does not translate to actually being mean to people. she only uses being mean as a shield for herself and being snarky#Is just fun for her. it’s fun for Me. you have to inconsequentually tease people or they’ll never learn to laugh at themselves#the twins and thancred 🫵 do this thing where they have big emotions but they don’t want anyone to SEE they have big weird emotions#so alphy pretends he doesn’t have them under a veneer of dignity and alisaie pretends the emotions are Something Else. thancred is#just so emotionally constipated he has trouble expressing anything. he’s got enough baggage for a flatbed#anyways. alisaie is such a compassionate and kind girl and she learned how to make snarky jokes and went ham. and she hates appearing sad o#weak or vulnerable so she blocks it off with an unapproachable emotion so no one pities her and they maybe get on with the plot#it is in fact also great at getting ppl to move away from the sad or embarrassing topic. even if the tradeoff is being more offputting#she would never (grabs youtube meme) she would never seriously bully her brother. this is sibling ribbing only. Cain instinct#just leave her be she is learning how to snark humor and she loves it she loves being sharp. alphy has wit he just keeps it close#my brother didn’t learn how to tell or receive a joke until he was 14 he took everything so seriously. he can do it now though and he’s#HILARIOUS. Don’t tell him I said that. my man knows exactly where the funny points are even if he hasn’t learned when to stop yet#too many tags. Whatever. jokey snark alisaie who sometimes compliments is happy alisaie grouchy snappy angry alisaie is way too stressed#very easy way to tell between the two. even alphy can tell between the two I believe! He tends to rib back in protest if they’re having fun#and try to stop her if they’re not having fun. case in point ‘what is that supposed to mean?!’ vs ‘alisaie ryne was only trying to help.’#I know they’re twins but that’s such an intensely older sibling thing to do that it reels me#LONG TAGS AND THREE EDITS TO ADD ON SHORT I resent this stereotype taken too far into ooc behavior. it happened with nya#It will happen again and as a postscript let me regale you with Things U Can Notice About Character Motivation and Actions—#I’m not done let me s#she and raha are friends now I decree. ‘haha you like me’ SPUTTERING PROTEST FROM BOTH
