    This is very cool, I miss the days when the Southern Railway had their own "big hook" that could move in and get the job done. Most , if any are in museums now. I figure all three motors will travel up to Altoona, PA for repair.

    Everything is on the internet somewhere shockingguy but here’s the story.
    NS AC44C6M 4067 and SD70ACe 1058, two of the three locomotives that were involved in the grade crossing collision and derailment last month at Collegedale, TN, were rerailed today. They were then moved out in a train at 5 mph headed for Chattanooga, TN, where they will be prepared for shipment to Altoona, PA for eventual wreck repairs. The third locomotive, NS ET44AC 3601, was lifted onto a flat car (due to severe truck damage) on Tuesday and shipped to Chattanooga. Photo credits to David Johnson.

      the diesel just has to run the hydraulic pump- that is where force multiplication comes from here- remember HP is a time (and therefore RPM-based) measure of work done capabilities, torque is the measure of force twisting (in this case) the input shaft of the hydraulic pump.

      It's in the center of the locomotive and doesn't take a direct impact unless it's side swiped/punctured by other railroad equipment like a derailment when it hits a railroad car left in the foul of an adjacent track just as an example. In this case, the front of the locomotive struck the truck and it laid over and slid on its side. Trust me...I've seen holes the size of big watermelon's in locomotive fuel tanks.
