Economy of scale, I presume. Cheaper to build and operate a smaller fleet of immense trucks, rather than a larger fleet of more conventionally-sized ones.

Gargantuan.

They have a 1,600 horsepower diesel engine, that provides power to electric motors that drive the wheels. Each wheel has its own motor, and it takes only 126 revolutions of the wheel to cover a mile.

Yep. Many of this type featured in a series of
Greyhound Bus Driver Cartoons and Jokes" panels outside the museum.

How come the ore trucks are so big? Because the ore is so heavy?

Could easily be that, or perhaps a fox ambushed it? We'll never know, of course.

It reminded me of "The Bullpen", a temporary outdoor entertainment venue in DC, a block from Nationals Park. Those walls were also built by stacking shipping containers.

Yes it is. I saw others later, on other trails, but this was the only one on this trail to have caught my attention.
