Monster Locomotive
At the Great Central Railway in Leicestershire heavyweight haulers Zak and Harry and ramp man Dave, are loading a 100 ton Deltic diesel engine, no 19, Royal Highland Fuselier, ahead of a titanic move to the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway in Wirksworth, Cheshire.
Along the 40 mile route the team must trawl the colossal convoy through Derby city before negotiating the notoriously difficult access to the heritage line at Wirksworth, without damaging the engine’s pristine paintwork, in time for a Diesel Gala.
