LMIX 519
Title:  LMIX 519
Description:  Catch of the Month is this fine work train heading out of CP Welland yard with two loaded ballast hoppers. The versatility and quick set-up of the LORAM RAILVAC allows railroads to utilize the machine for multiple track maintenance practices including cribbing/undercutting mainline mud spots, installing drain tiles and culverts, and undercutting switches and diamonds. The machine is able to fit into restricted clearances, allowing railroads to use the machine in tunnels and bridges.
