They went by road from Eastleigh to (I think) Immingham, then shipped to Cuxhaven.

That's right, having a check back 480 & 484 were moved by road from Eastleigh to Immingham on 20/9/21 arriving in Cuxhaven on 24/9/21, they arrived back at Immingham from Cuxhaven on 30/11/21 and were roaded back to Eastleigh

Thanks for the info in post #329, I'm not surprised about speed restrictions through stations, they did the same when I hauled the first 325 to Chart Leacon for DC testing, 10mph through a few stations even though the 47 was closer to the platform edges than the 325 was


Up to date, 43465 & 43484 will remain in Scotland for a few days leaving 43468 & 43480 to work 'The Master Cutler'
