I used to work for a company that scrapped rail equipment. We spent six weeks here in late 2010 scrapping six locomotives (I believe it was four GE 70-tonners, one EMD NW2, and an Alco S-2), five boxcars, and one hopper car. The truck in this picture weighed around 20,000lbs, and it was very hard to drag over to here from across the yard with a 50,000lb trackhoe.
