YES…& Thank you!! This operator is my Uncle and he knows exactly what he is doing! As for all those thinking he was stupid or would be in some kind of trouble from his boss…quite the opposite actually. They were all very impressed and to prove it a picture of my uncle doing this is hanging on a wall somewhere in most CAT offices! Go look for yourselves. No wrong doing going on in this video people, just a GREAT operator doing his job! 🙂 I’ve ran excavators most of my life and have done similar manoeuvres like this climbing up and down quarry walls, creek and river banks, and large stockpiles of rock and various other materials. But I would probably be a little nervous climbing up on railcars this way. Hats off to a very skilled, confident and perhaps a bit crazy operator. Cool FN video though.
