The lenght of VLI BB40-2 8105 (Brazil)
Author: pedrop

Today afternoon I visited the EVP yard here in town to take some measures of a VLI BB40-2. The main ones are shown in this picture. From the center of bolth couplers, it measures 25,100mm or 82ft 4.18897638. Now I need to measure the BB40T-2, that have a bigger front platform.
