On the morning of June 9, drivers in Eldersburg, Maryland, were surprised to see a semi truck hauling the body of an old Air Force C-130 cargo plane stop traffic along Liberty Road.
The details: The flatbed truck was hauling the huge plane fuselage through the intersection at Route 26 and Sykesville Road when it could not make the tight turn without stopping.
- State troopers came to help around 11:30 a.m.
- Officials said the truck was never truly stuck, but the driver had to take it slow and use extra care to get through the turn.
- Several people snapped photos of the scene, showing the massive plane body in the suburban intersection.
Backstory: The plane was supposed to become an underwater attraction for scuba divers, but those plans changed. The owner later said it is now being hauled to Tennessee, where it will be turned into an Airbnb, according to FOX Baltimore.
Traffic was moving again shortly after troopers arrived. No injuries were reported in the process.
