Description:  3906 getting its wheels trued at the Worcester engine house. All's need to be done is jack the truck up for wheel/rail clearance and place wood blocking. Disconnect the motor leads and hook to a welder for power. Being computer driven ain't much for the operator, but remove the steel wool from the cutter with that hook under the control panel
