Remote Control Shoving Platforms

[FCIN]

Just for fun, here's a good video of a CSX train running at speed with a cab (shoving platform) in the lead at Lakeland, FL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x1-pkd4Q9M Note that the shoving platform has its own horn. I saw the CSX Patio switcher run like this with 15 cars from Richmond back to Patio not too long ago. Does causes folks at grade crossing to do a double take! Of course this is not being operated R/C, but you do find situations where local freights or switchers are operated by one man with an R/C pack on the cab such as this now abandoned operation on the Willamette Pacific Railroad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHkL9q6TIaU. If you've never seen all three of these video's, it's a treat.
