Catching the Mail

An Illinois Railway Museum Volunteer is reenacting a mail catch on Memorial Day Weekend. As the mail is kicked to the ground, the hook is swung out and catches the mail on the crane.
I witnessed a similar action on a Santa Fe train in my childhood. Very cool to see it again. Thanks
