Of course.  That's what it was built for.  About 6 months prior, Metro North bought a brand new LORAM Rail Vac for use around the system.  Tonight, that rail vac is here in Fleetwood, sucking out a bunch of dead ballast which happened to be in a muddy soft spot, which makes for an uncomfortable ride.  once cleaned out, a hopper full of clean ballast will be brought here and will drop stone.  If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me.  Comments are welcome.  The video was taken at 1:57AM on July 4th, 2010.
