It almost has the look of a work train, but is only manned and piloted by a MN track foreman.....Anytime the track gang works along the ROW a track foreman is present alleviating the need for a train crew member as all track foremen are qualified on the operating rules and physical characteristics.
.......I guess this avoids using a Metro North train and engine crew.
