Hanno,
In 1994 an Ozzie, Bob McNeill from Orange shipped TWO C15As to England in a 20' container for use and possible sale . They took the wheels of the first one and drove it in on the brakedrums, then with the cab top removed, backed the second one in somehow. After much drama with the shipping and unloading, they assembled them and used them for the 50th D-Day Celebrations. As they failed to sell, he had to repeat it all and ship them back to OZ. Cost him a mint overall.
Regards Rick
