Narrative

As the Trac Mobile, pushing one rail car, moved down the track, Operator B walked alongside, outside the danger zone, to align the rail car with the scale. After it halted, the rail car uncoupled from the Trac Mobile and continued rolling down the tracks. Operator B ran to get ahead of the rail car to apply the manual brake, but Operator B's foot got caught under the wheelset.
