strange you should say that , they use a ford 6600 for the same job down here in the dockyard, just drag it along on the rails set in the road, usually from the lower end by the nuclear sub refit complex up to the top end where the rail track comes in, about 4 miles at a guess

OH RIGHT HERE WE GO

1 I bet that in the power plant and at the dockyard the ground was flat level no big hill no mountains no sleeping policemen no hill starts no soggy ground . . ...

flippin heck a man is able to pull a plane 747 for crying out loud i remember watching it on guniess book of record programme once or something like that anyway.

SO what ur trying to say is ur wee tractor can pull 55 tonnes outta a quarry hill or something???
