A team transports a 100-tonne vintage locomotive across two continents, returning it from Bloemfontein in South Africa back to Glasgow, where it was built and is now due to go on display in the city's transport museum. A long, slow journey, it is complicated by the determination to move the train in one piece rather than dismantle and transfer it in sections

I saw this last year Its a great bit of telly!

Great little sound track that goes with it

If no one has that channel I'm downloading it and will gladly upload it for people to watch.

Missed it... typical  

I noticed the loco has disappeared from the Nitshill council yard. Any ideas where it's being restored?
