Neat video. As I watched, I wondered how many smashed fingers and toes there were along the way.
Very interesting!
(Gotta LOVE that seam-shovel at the beginning......)
I was pretty amazed at how the rig carrying the sections of rail, being pushed by the locomotive, was running on rails that were just sitting there....without even a plate or a spike to stop them from tipping over, and causing a derailment....
WOW!
Thanks for posting, Fred!

John.
I wondered about that too, John. I had to rewatch that a couple of times to make sure I wasn't missing the spiking somewhere when the rail was first laid.
