Made a mistake.  Meant to say pre-bolted rail, not sectional track.

Also, the photoshopping in that ad for Mountain Living is... well, it makes it look like an object to find in a computer game.

bbmiroku,  If you are referring to reply 724, They are using single rail.  They can only move the rail as far as the boom and reach.  My guess is since the man is pulling on the rope that they are getting ready to drop the right hand rail.

Looks like its being used as a boiler and not as a locomotive. But i'm hoping i'm wrong.
