new rail         
This crane is running hy-rail and on the end of the boom, there is a rail grapple, but it has rollers on it. This allows the crane to lift, move or move over the rail and place it along the crossties. Crews behind it were placing plates, snother crew bhind them was spiking it down. No real big rail replacement equipment on site, all small stuff. This was the biggest piece out there.
