Now things are getting serious <g>. Ananova: Steel thieves at it again in Ukraine There has been another steel theft in Ukraine - just a week after an 11-metre steel bridge was stolen. This time thieves targeted an historic steam locomotive from an open-air museum in the city of Donetsk in the east of the country. The local police chief told a television channel those responsible had probably hired a crane from the state transport company using forged documents authorising the locomotive to be moved to a new location. It was found at a metal scrap yard outside the city, already cut into pieces. The locomotive was said to be the first ever built in Soviet Ukraine back in 1924, so experts could not put a price tag on it, says BBC News Online. But the thieves could have expected to earn about £2,200 from selling the 14.5 tonnes of scrap metal that remained of the locomotive. Experts doubt it could ever be put back together. Metal theft is a serious issue in Ukraine, where statues, wires and even sewage hatches have been stolen for sale as scrap.
