Mechanically it is not designed to come apart easily. That is why they are shipping them assembled. The Edmonton flatcar is completely different from ours ijmorlan. They are not “extensions” but a full LRV-length structural beam, more like a bridge. An extension would just bend and fall off.
Cool, thanks for the information. I wish I could see the Edmonton delivery car up close — I imagine the details of how the LRV is supported and tied down past the end of the basic car would be quite interesting.
