It's always amazed me how they get things in and out of Llangollen, there doesn't seem to be enough room to swing a cat never mind a ginormous low loader with 80 tons on the back

You might be surprised at how manouverable they are.
With the rear steer and radio link between the man on the back and the driver.
On the NYMR we have a similar reversing situation on the lane to the PW yard at Newbridge but a bit shorter at about 200 yards but the road through Pickering and then by the station can be a headache.
