Service Truck |
| Description: |
Maintenance of Way service truck at Valley Falls, at the very end of the Wrentham Branch at Titus Street. This amazing truck carries an assortment of tools for any needed repairs. In addition it carries fuel, lubricants and hydraulic fluids that are used on the track equipment. With its handy boom, they're working on a hydraulic piston on the tie inserter TC315 by the Valley compound - about 1/4 million dollars for this vital piece of equipment.

Well what to do when theres no room to pull out the old tie? You pull and bend until the tie either breaks or digs itself into the ballast until its out. |
