Photos of locos being transported by road

Ask a real train driver or fireman questions about how engines work, railways operate or anything else. If we do not know the answer, we will find out!

Photos of locos being transported by road

Post by Dylan Knott »

Does anyone have photos of steam locos being transported by road? Alternatively, being loaded onto a lowbed. Is this normally conducted stern or bow first?

Normally stern first.

But I do not know if there is a specific reason for this or if it is just co-incidence.....

See here for a typical steam move...
