Nice capture of the crane train Bob. Most of the cranes I see these days are the old type at preserved railways so really good to get a look at this one. Regards, Jeff.
This is the first time I've seen one Jeff, it was used to lift the damaged wagons on to the flats, they were then taken down to the station at Llangennech, where they were lifted off by a massive Road Crane, and placed on a Lorry for transfer to their final destinations....Regards...Bob
Thanks very much both, it moved very slowly, and there were many Railway Staff there before it set off on it's journey. It was good to be able to see this special train much closer than yesterday...Best wishes...Bob
Wonderful shots and you’ve got to love the horn on a class 66 I also want to inform you that they will be lifting and moving the oil tanks on Wednesday the 2nd at Llangennech , Just in case you wanted to film it.
Thanks very much for your kind comments. Strict security at Llangennech will prevent me capturing material at Llangennech, but other locations may be available, depending on which route it takes....Bob
Hi Bob seeing the railway coming to clean up the wrecked train is strange to us. at least here in Ontario Canada this kind of stuff has been contracted out now away before I retired in 1995. I guess they have some rail management over seers of some kind there for advice and such but the clean up is all done by none railway employees.
All the emergency services are involved Wayne, but most of the work is carried out by Railway Staff, with the specialist knowledge of dealing with such matters.
Very nice video Bob. Whenever i wants to watch action in South Wales i alway waych your amazing videos
Thank you for your kind and much appreciated comments.
@robmasterman no problem I love watching your videos they are really entertaining

Glad to see you are on the job, thanks for the video Bob
Thanks Peter, I'm so pleased to be able to capture matters, so that others can see what is going on....Bob
Great stuff Bob, that crane is huge. Superb capture of the movement
Thanks Austin, this was used to lift a Tank today, they but it on one of the flat wagons, then lifted onto a low loader and taken away by road.
Another interesting video of the aftermath of the Llangennech derailment Bob. Good work. Regards, Dave.
Thanks Dave, it's rare to see this crane out on the system...Regards...Bob

V good filming, Bob -👍👍Ian
Thanks Ian, the latest piece in this Sage....Bob
That is a very impressive crane. Hopefully all will be cleared up soon.
it has a capacity of 125 tons Steve, the first wagon left today by road.

Thanks , I’m actually down there right now and I might upload my footage in the future
Good clips once again Bob. Access to the derailment looks impossible unless you have a drone.
Thanks Mike, there's very tight security Mike, and impossible to get to the site at the moment.
hell of a trek
It is indeed Phil, but these specialist cranes are only required infrequently
@@robmasterman true, but it doesn't hurt to have a few more sets stationed at various depots
@@GWRProductions-kg9pt Its all about money these days and no one is prepared to have that much capital sitting in a siding and not earning its corn.
