Something is very interesting in this photo. The derailment crew is working for R.J. Corman Derailment Services as stated, however they may have been a little short in the number of side boom tractors needed to complete the work. The closer of the two tractors is plainly marked as being owned by Hulcher who also does derailment clean up work. Richard Corman got his start in this work by doing peripheral site work on Hulcher jobs in Kentucky and nearby states when his equipment consisted of a dump truck, a tag trailer and a back hoe. Being a quick study Mr. Corman learned the type of equipment needed to do this type of work. Thus derailment cleanup work is the Cornerstone of his empire which includes many other divisions, including Railpower Genset Locomtives. Please visit the R.J. Corman web site to see what his other divisions can do, you will be amazed !

It looks like that unit in the distance has some serious frame damage towards the front, but it could be just the way it came out in this picture.

I thought the same thing about the frame damage on the AC4400 in the distance.
