We used to park the back trailer then pushed the dolly up to the front of it by hand, then backed the next trailer up close enough to connect the pintle hitch to it. Then using the tractor and trailer, forced the dolly under the rear trailer. Then if you were hauling triples you repeated the process to get the dolly under the center trailer and once everything was connected you got to leave. I did know of a driver that used to hook the front two trailers together then went and hooked up his third trailer by backing the doubles with a second dolly behind them up to the rear trailer. Damn good driver...
