Recently on one of these message boards, there was a link posted to a web site showing a series of pictures of a guy maneuving a backhoe onto a train car. It was a Railroad related site. I have lost it. Can someone out there help me get back to it? Thanks. JD
P. S. Are the photos real or have they been doctored?

I once watched a backhoe set up like this unloading a long string of coal cars at a power plant in Kansas City. It would just move itself along and move from car to car. It's real.

Great! Then please explain the unloading, which isn't shown. Tractor remains above the car?
