Moving the Locomotive YOU helped save from Being Scrapped to it's new home!

Hello everyone,
Today is the day.
281266 is moving to her new home where she'll be safe and looked after - thanks to you guys.
But just what goes in to moving a 28 tonne locomotive?
A massive thank you to Railway Support Services for their help during this move. If you need to move a loco, or other railway related assistance, check them out here: www.railwaysup...
Thanks to everyone at the Colne Valley Railway for their assistance before loading, and everyone at the Whitwell and Reepham for giving it a new home.
A video featuring,
Lawrie - Presenter, feeling very excited to move the latest loco,
Dave - Chauffeur, feeling very excited to move the latest loco,
Lozz - Cameraman, feeling very excited to move the latest loco.
A video edited by Lawrie.

Always love old diesels.

[@Apocrypha_Darkbane]

Wasp stripes. Full wasp stripes. And maybe if you’re feeling adventurous a K5LLA air horn. Small doot with big sound.

[@jappedut9009]

Oh look there's a locomotive on the road ‼️ Wonder where it's going ❓️ 😂😂😂

[@MossRods]

the bend in the rail at 10:30 is frightening

[@QALibrary]

[@stuartross282]

Seeing a HST set in preservation is abit overkill

[@fishw]

Glad its at its new home, more glad I didnt have to explain to my other half on what silly thing friends and I brought Hahahaha Awesome its part of the LMM fleet

[@rshackelford4445]

The Jaaaaaaaaaag

[@ZwilnikSF]

Would it be possible to put some side/front/rear photos and measurements of the Ruston up somewhere for those of us who would like to try and make a model of the loco we helped have a starting point? (Unless someone already happens to have design drawings for it somewhere?)

[@ThomasMcIlroy-h1h]

Good evening lawrie the next thing will be to run along the tracks and then repainting the locomotive

[@Northerner_Transport_Hub]

Is it gonna be fitted with air or vaccun brakes so it can pull passenger coaches?

[@lmm]

Vac eventually

[@MichealRandall-q2x]

Sounds dead good though don’t you reckon?

[@RG-Models86]

Has it been decided what livery she's going in when complete?

[@18robsmith]

Someone muttered "Penelope pink, with lime green highlights" ;-)

[@RG-Models86]

​@@18robsmith 😆

[@schwarzermoritz]

13:50 Horrifying? Small? Laurie, you can hang a small car from an M8 bolt.

[@lmm]

Same logic as the amount of force taken through a screw thread on a train. Blows my mind

[@johnthomson789]

What colour are you going to paint here and when will the window be fit

[@lmm]

I have a plan! Windows after we've made sure the thing is OK 😂

[@LondontransporduckL99]

Lorry when are you buying a railway/bulid a railway

Are you still doing the what’s broken now?

[@lmm]

It will reappear

[@guypenryn7008]

@@lmm loving the content want to see more but also got curious about what’s happening where it all started. Thanks again for making interesting programs

[@lmm]

@@guypenryn7008 it's just been time to get on with things, Since Matt and Morgan left it's limited the time to work on the things, plus filming and working on them is hard on my own. However new guys have been making progress!
