When I went out to grab some lunch earlier I noticed a low-loader with what I believe was a Class 33 locomotive on the back a little way up ahead. This was in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire. I couldn't see the number but it was in BR blue livery and looked in pretty good condition. I'm guessing it was just passing through but anyone know any more?

Whereabouts in town was this? I'm curious as to where it's travelling from/to, hopefully someone in the know can clarify.
It was just near the main Tesco store. It had stopped but was gone when I came out the shop. Thinking about it they must plan the routes of something this size so it must have been in the area for a reason as it's not really on the way to/from anywhere obvious except maybe from March direction along the A141 to the A14/A1.

Also what number was the 33?

Sounds like it would have been 61306 Mayflower on the Swanage Belle.
No idea on the 33 though.
It may well have been. I only caught a quick glimpse of the cabside, not enough to make out the number but it looked like it started with a D rather than 33.

26043 en route from the North Norfolk Railway to the GWR.
Not unless it has the larger central front windscreen like the class 33 does?
