On October 5, 2015, Amtrak's southbound Vermonter train #55 struck a rock slide and was jettisoned into the woods and down a steep embankment near Northfield, Vermont. In the following days, the equipment that remained near or on the right-of-way was rerailed by crews from R.J. Corman, while the locomotive became the task of the Winters Rigging Inc. A logging company was hired to cut a road into the derailed locomotive and then the crews drug the locomotive to a nearby dirt road and onto a remote-controlled lowboy trailer that was owned by Central Jersey Trucking & Rigging, of Middlesex, NJ. On October 10, the locomotive made the trip from the wreck site to downtown Northfield, VT, where it was righted and on October 11, lifted onto a flat car. The locomotive was then moved to Montpelier Jct. where it was further secured and readied to head to Beech Grove, IN for evaluation. This video shows the process used by Winters to move the locomotive to the flat car. The entire process took approximately 1 hour, however this video was cut showing only the portions where it was being moved or crews were preparing the right-of-way for the move.
