How to get a hi rail vehicle on track

We are on North Main Street, in the heart of the University of Delaware campus in Newark, where we see a hi rail truck just north of the railroad crossing. The truck is attempting to spot a very large MoW hi rail jet snow blower attempting to get its rails onto the tracks. It takes a few attempts but after some careful maneuvers, the 2 vehicles precede west on the tracks. I know there was never any real danger to any peds, but I still don't think they should of been crossing on the street and around the gates while this was taken place if you have any questions, just ask The video was taken on CSX's Philadelphia Sub on March 4th 2013
