A process of loading a rail utility vehicle 1, onto rail tracks 2 using a portable turntable device (3, figure 2), the turntable comprising a circular base ring 4, a middle frame 5 and wheel guides 6. The base ring comprises rail track positioners 7 that minimise movement of the turntable. The frame comprises at least three wheels 8 that provide rotation of the frame along the base ring 4. The process comprises the steps of positioning the base ring 4 onto the rail tracks 2 and positioning the rail track positioners 7 to limit movement of the device in a perpendicular position to the track; placing the middle frame on top of the base ring and aligning the wheels of the frame to run on top of the base ring; placing the wheel guides on the middle frame, loading a rail utility vehicle onto the device; rotating the middle frame to turn the vehicle to face parallel with the tracks; and unloading the vehicle from the turntable onto the tracks.
