One person could do it. You just drop the posts where they’re supposed to go, then park the tractor and trailer in the middle of a 200-300 foot run; 150’ of air hose fits on a relatively small reel.
It’s certainly a lot better than having to set a post the old fashioned way, with a shovel or post hole diggers and a creosoted log...
This is what I use for that job.When I was a youngster, my grandfather would put up temporary fences for cattle. However, he would use railroad ties for his corner and gate posts. Always a load of fun to dig holes for "posts" that big.
But, they NEVER pulled out of the ground.

The auger on that is to short and not big enough round for my dads corner post, he would find the biggest bois d arc tree he could find and cut the corner post out of it and what ever was sticking out of the ground that was how deep he wanted in the ground. Usually our corners were 6 out and 6 in and you had to do that 3 time on a 90 degree corner every corner post had to have a brace post to go with it.This is what I use for that job.

Give me the posts any day. I'm allergic to hay.I don't know which was worst ----
(1) Driving a line of T-posts
(2) Loading hay by hand
(3) Makes no difference, they're both terrible!
Grandpa didn't have anything like that. He was shorter than me and hard and thin, but he had no problem handling those railroad ties all by himself.
