Video footage of the hauling of a railbus by a tamper at the Downpatrick & County Down Railway set me wondering - have there been any mainline instances where a PW machine has hauled non-PW equipment?

I remember seeing a photo of a failed freightliner train being hailed by a tamper type thing at taunton a few years ago.

Not sure about mainline uses but the tamper hauled railbus is only the 5th time such a service has been run according to one of the gents that was present.
