The cargo was a mid tower section of a giant wind turbine, on its way to the recently completed Lenalea project near Drumkeen.

It was “surveyed and planned to the millimetre” according to the specialist McFadyen’s Transport who were tasked with the job of getting the parts from Killybegs to the wind farm site.
