The cargo weighed 104 tonnes and was 11 metres long, 7 metres wide and 4 metre high. Fortune designated a specialised truck to move the bogie.

After arriving at the river port of Mantua, the company transferred the cargo onto a barge, which travelled from Mantua to Marghera.

In Marghera, the barge joined the ocean-going vessel which proceeded to hook the neck with the powerful cranes on-board, before placing everything in the hold.

Finally, the ship left to make its final journey to Asia.
