Now this guy knows how to operate a backhoe.

One has to wonder if that is an OSHA-approved method! Note how, by the final frame, he has scooched the thing over onto the next car. Imagine if a knuckle gave way - then he'd be the coupler!
Comment 3:
They have been using this method to 'walk along the tops' of hoppers and gondolas for M/W work for decades. They can (and do) walk the length of an entire cut of cars in this manner. I have to believe OSHA is very familiar with it. The equipment operators who do this make it look easy and routine: for them, I guess it is!
