@kegill This picture also shows that it requires quite a bit of skill and proper timing if you want to let the loco go both ways until it locks up. Merely eyeballing it will result in a situation like in this incident more often than not. Also, shunting operations are limited to a Vmax of 25 km/h. Could have ended worse at higher speeds …
