Railroad Wrecking Crane, DMIR X7, Inside Tour & Lifting A Great Northern Ranch Car

The DMIR X7 is a rare survivor of the cutting torch. Having been in active wreck service on the Missabe until 2001, it was then sold to the Wisconsin Great Northern Railroad in Trego, WI. Watch as Josh Topper of Topper Machine LLC, expertly operates this amazing crane. An amazing example of engineering, the X7 plays vital roles on the WGN.
