Steve Redick submitted several images from the 3-11 yesterday on Lincoln Avenue in Chicago which was mentioned HERE. The fire included a response 6-3-1, one of Chicago’s foam units which deployed high-expansion foam into the building in an effort to extinguish the fire. Steve arrived on-scene later than he would have liked, but still captured many images while the suppression effort was active.

Various tools are used for the manipulation of rails. These are primarily for the unloading or loading of rails and the longitudinal distortion.
Various designs of loaders are available, including self-propelled equipment, but also loading cranes, which can be mounted on rail cars. A rail lifting clamp is necessary for the safe lifting and manipulation of rails. It is important to note that when rails are unloaded there should not be too much deflection or elongation and care should be taken not to damage the rail surface.
