Thanks, fellows. As it is hard for you to make comments based on my amateur "snapshots" I will say only that great care was taken to not lift on the shank of the coupler.  There are two large spaces through a massive carbody plate through which the cable was threaded and bore no contact point on the edges.  You cannot see this in the photos. Is it just possible that it has been some time since forum people looking at those photos have also worked on an F unit? I cannot defend or criticize however, as I do not know and certainly am not the rigger.   As to the rest...I am merely the gofer and thought the pictures were interesting.  I will not say the lift was standard practise because i have never seen it before.  I will say the operators had years of experience.  Nevertheless, I think it best to remove things I do not know about.
