This vehicle is call a road railer. How do I know? I work for the CP rail way and I am a forman in the Milwaukee area in the MOW.( Track department) Why we use this type of vehicle is it is faster then the old car mover witch were a cat loader with out the bucket. and move very slow. This will move more cars. <br /> <br />Here's a photo of a much larger version of this type of vehicle. This thing has a coupler on it's rear bumper!!! This one belongs to the CP and is being used to pull a few gondolas to distribute ties for a replacement project. I have seen this exact arrangement used by the BNSF too. <br /> <br />[img]http://home.comcast.net/~big_boy_4005/tired.jpg[/img] <br /> <br />Click on the photo to enlarge it, sorry it's a bit fuzzy.[:I] <br />[/quote]
