Description
Back in February 2000 I spent 2 days at Newport Docks to record the delivery from Spain, of 67001/02/04/05/07/08. Also in these clips you'll see 66194, 47306 doing the initial shunting with the help of 09107. Some points of interest; you'll note the boat is on an even keel when the locos are swung over the side, by water in the double hull be moved as a counter balance. Also some of the locos are fueled and shunt around on their delivery. The skill of the onboard crane operator is displayed as he positions the locos onto the dockside track.
