what a strange shot! love it!

wow, that reverse beeper is L.O.U.D.
-
why didnt they just use a shunter like an 08 or something.surely that would have been easier and safer!

No I was not there when the Locomotive was dropped, however, I have seen it on the Dockside where it was unloaded due to some damage to the Vessel. The Loco suffered Cracked Axles, Front Bogie Damage, Frame Damage & also other structual damage, It also looks like one end has been lifted up/Jacked up and stayed in Situe .Look similar to a Banana.

@WhiteBoyx5 Did you see 70012 get dropped while being unloaded? It was badly buckled and I gather it will be shipped back and used for spare parts.

@WhiteBoyx5 Thank You ever so much you are a Star, will make a visit to see them being unloaded. Just a shame it wasnt a couple of Gevo's,, Happy New Year from the UK
Out of interest, why does the guy driving the Cat go through the other gate? Can't see in the video why he doesn't just carry on. Cheers.

@Vorsprungdurchturbo The CAT could make it through that opening but the side of the lift would snag the fence.

That is interesting. Beluga Endurance was in Duluth to unload wind turbine parts and I was wondering what they were taking back across the pond.

@alaricdogface Canola and flax seed from Thunder Bay, along with the five locomotives from Erie.

Do you please know when the Boat will arrive in Newport, Wales Docks. I live very near and would like to see them being unloaded.
Thankyou from the UK

@WhiteBoyx5 She's supposed to arrive sometime in early January, around the 10th, I believe. If I find a firmer date I will post it.
