Transposing 240 feet of rail.
Sadly I don't have any video. It is a facinating process to watch.
As promised here are some photos of transposing 240 feet/80 meter lengths of rail weighing nearly 4 tons, with just rail turners, crow bars, track jacks and 8 men, well 7 while I was taking the photos!
best wishes,
John H-T.
