A mad friend of mine once moved an 11/44 system (in a
pair of half-height
racks) on the London Underground. He made several journeys -- bags of
boards and the mounting box, then the drives, then the rack side panels,
etc, and finally the empty frames. Got the whole thing home in one day
(which meant he only had to buy one Travelcard costing about \pounds
5.00). Not too expensive to move a complete machine in a way that ensures
it won't get mangled...
This is the coolest thing I have heard so far this week :)
