Ex-MBTA Pettibone Hi-Rail crane getting serviced at the Seahsore Trolley Museum

Ex-MBTA Pettibone Hi-Rail crane getting serviced at the Seahsore Trolley Museum.

This vehicle has a speed-swing front arm (hydraulic) and high rail gear to run on the rails at the museum.

Interesting note-the way the high-rail wheels are powered, the tires run against them, but the 'bone needs the tires to be going backwards on rails for it to go forwards.
