ive seen this in an email a while back, and this guy in the backhoe is pretty good, i do have a feeling that my bro in law could do that as well, the only thing to worry about when doing this is making sure you lineup straight with the rail car while you are still on the ground, i goes to show how much strength a machine like that possesses.

I've done some interesting things with a backhoe... never that. Not sure I ever wanted to.

Most machines I've run had some yrs. on them. I only remember two that might have been able to. I'd try it, but I'd have to be on the RR pay-roll.

Now that's one you dont see every day.  One way to get more miles per gallon of diesel with your backhoe--- hop a train.  I't all good unless you live where they have tunnels the train goes through.    Hobo transformer backhoe opperator meets mountain tunnel Burlington Northern denies all knowledge of event.
