Series Monster Moves ; Series 6, Episode 3
Summary The sixth series of Monster Moves follows the high risk job of relocating the world's biggest packages. Each week, specialised teams of heavy hauling experts take on some of the most daring relocation projects ever as they move huge loads by road, rail, sea and air across the UK, USA, Europe and South America.Mammoth mansions, tall towers, supersized ships, colossal cathedrals, massive machines, huge hotels - no structure is off limits. The sixth season promises races against time and tides, rows over politics and red tape, and battles against hurricanes and heat waves hauling a wide range of massive machines and superstructures.An expert team of heavy haulers attempts to transport a massive First World War artillery gun 400 miles from the Royal Artillery in Wiltshire to a museum in Utrecht, Holland. This rare 200-ton gun was designed to be moved around the Western Front on railway tracks. But, for this move, the team has no option but to travel by road and sea.(From the UK) (Documentary) G CC **New Episode** Follow the conversation on twitter #SBSdoco
