This blog has been created to show the relocation of an 1862 barn from Reading PA to my house in Waynesboro PA. My daughter will have her wedding reception here in August and then the barn will be used to store construction vehicles for my business and will also be used as a workshop. Just click on the titles in the green area to the right to see each step of the process.

Loading the heavy equipment
This was interesting so I included it in my blog. These two pieces of heavy equipment did the excavation for my project. The back axle of the trailer travels forward and this puts the bed at an angle to drive the machines on.
After the machines are loaded the axle travels back and raises the bed off of the ground. Here the back wheels are about half way back.
Once the axle is fully extended back the equipment is hauled away.
