You have a big Tonka Toy called : The Ultimate Earth Mover
darkblueworld > Ultimate Earth Mover
This is the largest earth mover in the world..... 
built by the German company, Krupp, and seen here crossing a federal highway in Germany en route to its destination (an open-pit coal mine).  
It is cheaper to move the thing like this, than to construct or reassemble onsite.
