Indeed.  There's just been a series on UK TV about specialist moving.  Things 
like buildings and even the locos that George Sinos documented here.  Ever seen 
a runaway building?  We'll just hold it with these 'dozers.  Oh, the 'dozers 
are moving now..... How about a loco that might get swallowed up because the 
movers can't be bothered to look for the fuel storage tanks that might still be 
there?  Put these metal plates down to spread (the now increased) weight..... 
Power cables in the way of the railway station building you are carting across 
town?  Just get a guy to sit on the (metal) roof and pole them over.  No need 
to switch off.  Tastes just like chicken.....

I can't believe they had any insurance.  They certainly had spurs.
