We are riding on a legend in the intermodal world. Over the past 50 years, you could find these monster machines in the yards of most railroads across the country.
The PC90 was an intermodal loader built by FWD Wagner Company. Manufacturing began in the late 1960s. They can still be found loading and unloading trains today.
Today, the last container of UPS high priority freight is being set for pick up. After an inspection of the cars, the track will be released and the cars placed into a train.
It was awesome to ride this beast. The operator was a veteran at ITS and was very skilled. He precisely spotted containers on chassis and well cars. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this behind the scenes side of railroading.
The PC90 is a huge machine. It is much larger than the modern European built counterparts that are replacing them. When the operator opens the tucked in legs and spread them wide open. the PC90 resembles a Transformer. It's size seems to increase quite a bit. Let me tell you, Bumblebee has nothing on the PC90!
