I lived along the ICRR during my childhood & from about 7-13 years old were my second home.  We called ourselves being safe & got a couple of cab/capola rides.  We also got stern warning about monkeying with any moving equipment & a horror story about a hobo standing near a highballing freight a a piece of loose banding material still attached to car nearly decapitating him. Anyway, the only real info I can add is the motorcar crew lifted the car over most turnout points & derails to avoid changing any mainliine signals as was mentioned earlier about the wheels being insolated.  Tweet.
