@@JawTooth This is not a train as far as the railroad is concerned. It may be a train to the public and the railfans but it's not a train. If it were a train, it would have to be manned by an engineer and conductor and maybe even a brakeman. As far as I could see, this M/W equipment was operated by one man. All major railroads have agreements with the operating and M/W unions allowing these hi-rail trucks to be manned by a M/W employee. I believe there are limits to how many cars can be towed around by the truck. Great catch showing how the crane rides on rails set above the sides of the cars, so it can move from car to car and reach down for the batch of ties and put them on the right of way. Keep up the good work.

I've seen 'em pull a few empties before, but 4 fully loaded gondolas and a 5th with the tie handling rig is pretty impressive. It must have some pretty steep gearing. And the bent crossing arm, I'm guessing the cops have had to straighten that out a few times before. It didn't take too much effort to get it back close to where it should be. All around, a great day of railfanning, JT, thanks.

The first one definitely counts as a train, but some people seeing it from a couple blocks away might think it's a truck. If you ever see a crossing with malfunctioning gates but nobody around to fix them, there is usually a number to call to report the situation. The fire department might have two different stations on different sides of the track, but only one fire chief, so that might explain how the other firefighters got ahead.
