How do you transport a loco by rail, when the OHL has such a small
clearance under some bridges?


On its wheels. The problem is lack of paths and the cost of them do the
obvious. Consequently putting it on a low-loader and taking it by road is
more economical than dragging it along the rails to the repair shop.
