i was trying to be a little dramatic to elicit a response, i wouldn't cut them up i'd just pull em apart. as to why i'm using them for the churchill basically i can see no other way to move it to my garden where the restoration will begin. they only have to last for a journey of 50 ft from the back of the tilt bed down a ramp to the workshop. there's 4 bogie assemblies so each will carry 4.5ton, not ideal but i believe they'll last 50ft at least i hope they do as if anything goes wrong with the unloading i'll end up blocking a major road between manchester and sheffield so as ever, no pressure

. i'll put up some pics of the bogies and the churchill recovery and let you all know how it goes.
by the way anyone know what the bogie assemblies could have been used for ?
