Does this giant-robot story sound familiar to anyone?

I remember a book or magazine story, possibly from the 1990s, about a couple whose car was lifted by a huge humanoid figure. The account included blurry photos taken from inside the car, but I can’t remember the title or find it again. Does that ring a bell?

The details are vivid, but they may not be enough to identify one specific account. I’d search combinations of the unusual pieces, like “car lifted,” “humanoid,” “train tracks,” and “photographs,” then try the same terms in library catalogs or used-book listings. Older paranormal books can be hard to find through general web searches alone.

I’d look for the book itself rather than only the supposed incident. A collection of case reports, a photo-heavy book, and an illustrated story could all stick in memory similarly, especially after a couple of decades. If you can check your family’s old shelves or remember the cover, publisher, or approximate size, that might narrow the search more than the robot description.
