Robin:
They did not always keep them from tipping over. If fact, all three were involved in a number of tip overs. OX turned over on the Lake City branch. OW turned over on the SG&N after it was sold to the D&RGW. OW again turned over in 1935 and killed the fireman.

The ditchers were equipped with rail clamps attached to the frame near the center of the car. Timbers or ties were inserted under the pads show in the photo.
