Southern Raiway recently moved another Westinghouse atomic reactor from the Port of Charleston, S C, to Bonsal N. C. The unit, 21.5 feet high and 20.5 feet wide, weighed 400 tons. The route was 358 miles, the longest distance Southern has ever moved a unit of this size. To accommodate the reactor a highway drawbridge was installed, truss brdges were replaced and track under overhead structures was lowered. This is the second Westinghouse reactor shipment that Southern has handled. The first from Chareston to Charotte N C was in eary 1974. That unit was slightly larger but the distance was less, only 258 miles.
