It is interesting to see windmill blades transported by rail. The use sets of five articulated spine cars whose original purpose was for trailers (piggy back). Here you can see how two blades fit on a set of five cars.

I asked that very same question (what was meant by Photoshop)? Apparently, it appears as though the blades in this shot have been digitally added to the train using Photoshop. For what purpose, I have no idea. I must be really good too, in order to add blades to all the other pictures I took on this day!

What do you mean by photoshop? That is how they carry turbine blades.
