225', if that is the length, wow. I see some long stuff running around SW Washington to the various pole yards but not this long.

We were in a restaurant last night and all tables were single slab tables 3 to 4 feet wide. Fir with fairly wide growth rings.

My brother commented that there is a single slab picnic table in Avery Park, Corvallis that is 85 feet long (or 93 feet) depending on the reference source.

Hull Picnic Table

This 85-foot-long table is made from a single slice of an old-growth Douglas Fir.

Lions Shelter

This shelter in Avery Park & Natural Area is a popular choice for parties and weddings. It features a massive picnic table and is close to the dinosaur bones and the locomotive.

Apparently installed in the mid 1980's.

Not 200', but it still would have been a unique load to haul.

Impressive work trucks! I wonder the total weight.

Looking at that, it appears to be a very unique load.

The two trucks appear to be chained together, but with some slack in the chain.

The log appears to be chained to the front truck, but in a way that it can pivot, but not roll.

The crosswise log on the second truck may be designed to roll back and forth as the distance between trucks changes. And, I don't think either the crosswise log, nor the long log are actually connected to the second truck. The log appears to have a bend near the small end, but perhaps that helps hold everything together.
