    The weight those two cranes are lifting is impressive. Cool to watch the repair crew do what they do. What's even more amazing is the way large railroads can totally rebuild a damaged locomotive like this. The facilities, skilled people, technical know-how and resources is impressive.

    With the setup on the line pull must be weak having that many parts in the blocks in order to pick it up. That's a crawlers weakness over the side! And why the operator on the right keeps looking back at the tracks behind him! There both maxed out.

      As long as they're not legally forced to properly maintain their tracks and equipment, they won't. Short-term cost-cutting will continue to win out over long-term stability and safety, just like in so many other commercial areas, like what we're seeing with Boeing.

    Spectacular video. Very dangerous job that these guys did. I take videos from the other side of the river of this spot and have been waiting to see when this would be done. I have seen more trespassers than I can count walking on the tracks and climbing on the wrecked equipment. MAS in the area is 50 mph. It’s amazing that no one has been killed out there and turned into vulture food. The spot where the video was taken is on a narrow one way mountain road with no space between it and the guard rail. As of last night there are still some remaining train cars there.

      around fortyt years ago the rail net work I was working at had a series of elderly EMD's converted to short hood and uprated power train. When A loco is damaged or modified ,they are stripped to the last nut and bolt and completely rebuilt from the tracks up .Cheaper than paying for new units. And as for inspections, all net works employ people to do just that and it's very nit picking because of the potential costs etc.
