wagon rerailer
A device for bringing a derailed wagon back onto the track. It usually consists of ramp elements, which can be fixed at intervals along the track or temporarily fitted to the track just beyond the end of the wagon. The wagon is then pulled to cause the wheels to ride up the ramp and back on to the rails.
