They really should invent some sort of "train/hopping/hydraulics technology...

Yup. you're right. They just leave a million dollar locomotive on the side of the tracks to rust. It's too bad there isn't any sort of lifting technology that will put the wheels back on the rails or something.

Had to get two sideboom tractors on one derailed locomotive,tie 2 long cables to the loco that did not derail and slowly pulled it east while the sidebooms lifted and moved towards the tracks to get it rerailed.

Well those Locos are a bit heavier than a HO gauge...
A lot of work to bring them back on the track.
