CN Heavy-duty
By far the best hi-rail truck I've ever seen. He's got everything you could possibly want:
- bugshield
- rugged IH looks, compare to the modern IH offering, yuck: http://tinyurl.com/36923t
- crew HQ in the back complete with a beam lamp! He's just like a SOO SD40.
- massive hi-rail set-up up-front, including ditch-lights. No wonder he doesn't need the front bumper! Looks like he's more than ready to pull 5 ballast hoppers on an obscure prarie branchline (BRANDT has competition!)
Best of all he reminds me of the heavy-duty 6x6 army trucks that are very common in Russia, complete with the "crew HQ" in the back. http://tinyurl.com/25oxwt

Don't let the residential street fool you, this is 1/2 block away from the CN mainline.
