Hi folks,

You may remember the discussion a few years ago about the EL's welded rail train gondolas (and big thanks to Mike Oravec for having
taken more photos of said gondolas!)

I've always wondered what equipment was used to assist with pulling the rails off the train, and I finally found the answer in these
two slides I won off eBay... it's EL 444100, the "rail puller" car. It's hard to tell if it's homebuilt or not, or what its lineage
is. Any clues?

- Paul
