Trans-Trading organized transport of two more locomotives from D-Lübeck to Hanko, Finland. Each weighing 90 tonnes and measuring 19,04 x 3,05 x 4,44 mtr.

The locomotives traveled "on their own axles" from the Bavarian plant in Munich to the Seelandkai terminal, where they were prepared for sea transport to Hanko, Finland by Transfennica's ferry service.

The Trans-Trading lifting gear was fixed on the mobile cranes and the reloading of the locomotives from rail onto heavy duty roll trailer were handled with Trans-Trading transport beddings attached underneath the locomotives.

LHG and Trans-Trading were jointly executing the sophisticated security measures to meet all safety requirements. After the heavy package was tied properly, dockers pulled the roll trailers with the two locomotives aboard a Transfennica ship MS "Hafina Sea".

The locomotives arrived safely and in time at the port of destination in Hanko, Finland.
