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.
