I would have lifted up, then pulled the train out, then lowered and pulled manageable quantities.

Actually, everything should be done by crane, but I guess management told them to use the forklifts cuz getting and assembling one on site costs a lot.

Does a crane cost more or less than this fuck up?

No, but tell that to Bob from management, who is not an engineer.

I've been in situations like that. You just don't do it. Also, explain why in written form and have that stamped and submitted.

I'm going to say less. They can do it by hand now!

Also, at the very least, should've had forklifts on opposite sides
