In an April 2006 newsletter, Vestas had an interesting article (650 KB PDF excerpt) about transporting wind turbines from their factory to project sites.

In a Winter 2004 newsletter, The Port of Longview, Washington had a related article (130 KB PDF excerpt) about transporting wind turbine components by ship and rail.

There was another similar article (390 KB PDF) in the March 2006 edition of North American Windpower (archive 2006).

Quote of the moment
"What I like best in the world is Me and Piglet going to see You, and You saying, `What about a little something?' and Me saying, `Well, I shouldn't mind a little something, should you, Piglet,' and it being a hummy sort of day outside, and birds singing."
~ -- Christopher Robin asks what Pooh likes doing best _The House at Pooh Corner_, p. 169 ~
