Stolen Forklift Accident Lands Near Railroad Tracks

- Stolen Forklift Accident Lands Near Railroad Tracks. There are times when my big powerful rotators just can't do the job. Not physically, of course, but because of SPACE! The big 4 axle monsters obviously can't fit into every driveway or alleyway, or in this case a no-access road leading to the back of a warehouse. The owners of this shop had a break in overnight and in the process they somehow backed up the forklift out the back dock.
This is where I come in the following morning, and after scouting all possible options, decided to bring in Joe with our 16ton 2axle medium duty wrecker. This versatile truck was just small enough to cross the tracks quickly and safely with the use of wood. Once backed up, both lines were used to lift and catch the forklift then rear tow it around the block.
From here, they wanted it inside of the dock. At first thought, a flatbed would be a great choice. But with the unit not running, you would not be able to push it off. Since I had Hulk, my 50ton rotator, already on scene it was a no brainer. I made one quick adjustment by removing the snatch blocks, to allow me to boom up and inside the dock with the forklift and get it in the exact spot they wanted.
It's different from the normal heavy duty recoveries I post weekly, but hoping you guys still enjoy this cool little battle.

it's not JUST an job, it's an adventure!
Seen that movie.
Josh, I would have been completely terrified to go down that alley. You and Joe did a great job on a task that was a little different. Stay safe guys!
I can only imagine the biohazards in that alley...🤢
Yeah, any one of the businesses there would pay huge fines if they were the ones that did it, but the protected junkie criminals can do it all day long.
Joe is an excellent driver.
I hope you had all of Hulk's boxes securely locked. I'm surprised people weren't trying to steal stuff off the right side of the medium-duty while you guys were standing on the left.
Good job guys getting it upright and back in their warehouse!
The great thing about your videos is that we see parts of L.A. we would normally never see.
Mr Josh Thanks for sharing and stay safe.
At first I thought that was just some run down industrial rail spur, but it's a main line track, fully signaled with Centralized Traffic Control. Just wow.
Man you have the perfect hobby
This was interesting Josh... Yeah, I like the variety you come up against in your industry! It's a good way we / I can see different places out your way... Keep them coming... Way to go Joe...👍👍
Josh an easy one but a tough one! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
That was some impressive driving by Joe.
Great job Love all your videos I remember broken the day when I used to drive Four car carrier You used to pick up at your yard Love tow trucks Especially big flipper
Well Josh & Joe !! You guys earned your $$$$$ on this recovery !!! 🤔🙄👍👍👍👍👍 Guess the Customer will be more careful with the ""Security "" of the Property !! 🙃😉🤔🙄
Nice job -- Enjoying this at the end of the day, seeing all the pieces fall into place.
BTW, it's been a while since the current dog-in-residence has heard you say "walking the dog," and now he's expecting me to clip the leash on him 😁.
Hey an extra large coffee for Joe! That was a snug little spot he had to back into. The train tracks put an extra level of duck no. Congrats on another job!
What a lovely place to work… good job guys. Stay safe
Both of y'all done an awesome job
God bless my friends have a great day stay safe out there.
Josh if you don't mind ask your family to pray for me I have stage 3 cancer and I'm going Fri to start my radiation treatment. Thank you my friend.
Joe = pro. Nice driving skills.
I have watched a bunch of video and this is the BEST rotator site! Bar None...
Nice job and Joe is a great driver and even better coffee drinker! 😜Question Josh: Does Hulk/Dave's truck/your Dad's truck have anti-theft devices when you have to park them up, running, out of sight like you did on this job? Thanks!
Your videos never disappoint.
OH America, what a glorious country 😢😮
Good video and Josh and Joe.
Another impressive job well done by the great team at Pepe’s Towing !
It shows on your professional at your trade and you know what you're doing I love watching all your videos you're good operator and a good man take care enjoy
Another awesome job as always 🤓🙋♂️👍
Great job Josh,
Great job hope jo didn't spill any coffee. LoL. This one definitely different but awesome. Thank you for sharing. Much love. Stay healthy and safe.
I know it is happening but still, every time I see that many homeless people it baffles me. Crazy that that is even possible in a first world country. Anyways, challenging job, well executed!
When even people working in Silicon Valley are living out of tents and cars you know it's a lost cause.
Good driving Joe.
Good job!!
Great video. You definately have the tools to do the job. Nothing gets past you. See you next time.
Good evening from Southeast South Dakota
I don't know how it is in LA but in Florida when we were on or really close to the tracks we would call the railroad and they were super cool to work with love your videos be safe and have a great day Sam
It's not great
Great video would love to see you do a drive around LA video the unseen parts love from ireland
Web3 Ignite IGNITE3 is gonna skyrocket! Get ready for the ride! 🚀🚀
Joe is the man!
Nice job guys love your video
OMG you control hulk like a baby very well experienced my brother Great Video
Dirty Mike and the boys send their love... lol
Look out Java Joe on the job. Good video
When I worked in Yosemite National Park. The concessionaire bought 2 Homes 600 baby rotors. The 16 ton reminded me of the trucks.
I feel sorry for you guys clean up.this mess we same bs here in calgary with homeless refuse to go well paid job in oilfield.thank expose new world in la right.thank you.calgary alberta canada
good job..
Being the boss does have its advantages.
Web3 Ignite IGNITE3 is gonna explode anytime soon 🔥
Just a little bit tricky, but you got it done.
“Send me joe, Mr. Coffee”
You mean “Mr. Spilled my coffee”
The 16ton is my favorite overall your entire fleet such a simple but beast of a truck and also what’s the camera and mic setup?
In a bind - send Mr. Coffee. That's an inside joke, a subscriber has to have been a fan for at least 3 years to catch that Punchline. On one job good Coffee spilled fast
Thank God for no smell-o-vision Josh! I hope there was something that was friendlier to your nose after you got away from that bio hazard area. Im surprised the RR doesn't or the city do something about the trash.
As for the job....tight backing in for sure!! Finesse was the name of the game and executed beautifully. It is nice seeing other trucks doing their thing. And Hulk had to come in after all too. all in a days work...another geat job done safely and without further damage...hopefully those front wheels arent flat spotted too badly.
Clean out the garbage and in a month there will be a whole new crop of it.
Brave of you to leave your equipment doors open in that alley... Turn your back for an instant and stuff'll disappear...
Wow finally I got to see papi chulo joe ❤I love you Joe ❤josh say hi to joe for me
Hey Josh. I was a certified forklift op. Even if the battery was dead the forks should have been able to be lowered without the motor running. Gravity would have taken it down by using the lever.
And that’s the purpose of the chain. We DID NOT want the forks going down. Imagine they did, then when we go to tow it out, they would drag, correct?
It may not have but you wouldn't have have to figure out how to get it back on the loading dock with the low clearance. Plus, you didn't need to drop the forks all the way down.
You know you're not supposed to be on the tracks or in the rail corridor. It's usually a crime, even.
But! There are ways to get in legally!
Every level crossing should have a railroad phone number you can call, usually this is for emergencies like someone stuck on the crossing or a crossing malfunction, but it gets you in touch with the railroad's train control or some form of office. They might be able to put protection down to totally prevent any chance of a train coming along, send out a rail protection officer, a railroad policeman, or maybe even some trackworkers to help.
Where's the machine gun mounted on that wrecker?? Don't need flood lights cause WAY before dark I'm outta there! What do they unload on that dock and how do the trucks get in there???
Did you take it out of gear to crank? Good thing it didn't start since all the oil probably leaked out.
Do you have a weight indicator on your remote control for hulk?
Josh there should be a blue sign on that railroad crossing you can call get protection for that move much better solution and cost you alot less if a train comes before normal
So what was the name of the bigger tow truck?
Pause at 2:05 with some editing and you have a great photo of L.A.
Unbelievable...
yeah, that one was a little different. interesting situation
Will be easy to park the flat on the dock and just push in.
Yeah it's a different world in the rear of some of these places in the city
4:46 Choo Choo woo hoo
To much weight it's gonna put Hulk in distress😂😂😂😂😂
Sketchy alley way hopefully you have protection
I happy it's not smell vision yet
Did you watch Plaza Towing go car fishing in a canyon?
About that thriving economy ...
What a mess!
👏👍
Green Rolling Papers ,,, !!!!! MAN.....
Sad those people cost that company a chunk of change.
Smallest rollover
Como que uma criatura consegue fazer isto ??? Derrubar !!!
Everybody needs a stool to work that wrecker. Tall controls. Thanks. Still enjoying my swag, cup is great.
Tricky
Web3 Ignite IGNITE3 is the first token that governs itself and not owners or other people, making it the smartest token in the world.
THAT LOOKS LIKE SANTA FE AVE. I WA SCLOSE ALAMEDA ST.
Yes sir Santa Fe to Alameda
Yep lower the forks
Decades of strickly enforced OHSA health and safety regs and driving a forklift at the plant I worked at under such regs had me screaming in my head lower the forks, LOL. I understand why you couldn't but the old rule of only enough height when driving to clear the ground is ingrained in me😃. You know the railroads have been able to steal millons of acres of land in the country for their rails and right of ways to run and we do need the railroads but the least they could do for havign been grants all that land is keep their right of ways clean. That business is going to need a better back gate or the thieves will just try it a again.
What makes you think there is no way? Do you know about Web3 Ignite IGNITE3? The price of this will soar to skyrocket 🚀🚀
Gavin Newsom's California.
Shitbumsville!!!!
Tapping your head means head in first and. tapping your butt means back in butt first
You can get clearance from the railroad to go in there and all that trash society might call it property, is also on railroad property City department of public works could simply come in with a police standby and clean all that crap out of there
965 thumbs up
I hope that dude smacked his head rolling that off the dock.
Did you check the oil before trying to start it?? Here is your lift back. The thives did a little damage but we blew the motor...
Doing lots of talking for someone holding his breath.
Looks like you could have used a bulldozer to clear a path for Joe and the 16 ton first. 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️.
Pick it with the 16t, pull out, back in a flatbed, roll it up, roll it onto the dock and done.
It wouldn't roll!! (or straighten the read wheel steer)
@@wssides rolled just fine when they dragged it out. And it’ll steer, you just have to crank the wheel a lot to generate some pressure to move the cylinder that turns the axle. Steering is purely hydraulic.
NEVER GiVE UP.🎹
Why don't city clean up trash ?
There are much better and safer alternative currencies, including Web3 Ignite IGNITE3, thus I'm no longer interested in those ones.
cant beleive they still use nails to hold down your tracks
They have to
