Thread-topic: Wreck scene

There are two photos on eBay showing a CB&Q wreck in the 1950’s, no location given.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Slide-CB-Q-Burlington-Freight-Train-Wreck-Scene-and-Crane-1950s/402411674136?hash=item5db19ada18:g:FgUAAOSwz~ZfUplR

In the second photo, a replacement track bed is being laid alongside the wrecked freight cars. On the other side of the cars are two Burlington Transport truck and semi-trailer units, the nearer one with its rear door open. There may also be a third truck to the left, with only part of its roof being visible. Presumably, the trucks are bringing additional material or tools to assist with the work, or to remove spilled freight. Was the use of trucks such as these common in clearing up wrecks?
