That's an operator who knows what he's doing!


It always amazes me to see how some of the biggest machines can be handled with delicacy, even grace, to get in and out of tight spots, or do complex, finicky tasks.  Here an excavator driver shows us how it's done.





I'd have been petrified of unbalancing the thing, so that it fell off to one side . . .

He should get out & go home, and let the boss figure out how to get the digger back off the train.

When I grow up I want to be just like him. Amazing.

That's the same way to get across spaces that barely allow the tracks to span. It can be unnerving, especially if one side is a barge, which moves as you're crossing.
