Heavy Equipement move

Post by shotgun-cam »

Ok want to see heavy winching last weekend saw their moving the CN locomotive 6213 in the CNE they already had the trailers ready and the tender loaded. they winch the units off the display rails on to rail on temp trailers for move) Trying to find out to where their moving to. Originally moved from tracks on temp rails by winching. With drives cut work done by a CP crew from railway wrecker. Our dad actually  cut them.

ok folks the engine moved on june 9th and 10th note front and rear bogies on trailer were removed to allow easier turning.



Route was out of parking lot Newfoundland DR (beside Automotive Building) to Lakeshore Blvd east to Bathurst (Streetcar lines removed and the 80 wheel bogie set up in stills were restored ) then east on westbound Lakeshore lanes (yes over the bridge that's why so many wheels) to Reese St and in to roundhouse.
