Spot car here.  But don't spot it here, you'll block the door!  I know they want to be helpful with the signs, but geez...

 

Then there's that man-way door. Watch that first step, it's a doozy!

The raisins (along with the related fruits, nuts and flakes) are at it once more.

Best guesses:

(1) There ought to be a "Not a Truck Dock w/o Blue Flag Protection" sign there as well.

(2) The joe-bob agridummy plant people are in conflict again.

(3) The fire marshal and the plant operator have opposing views.

(4) Someboy's cheap & lazy with the hose. ((agri-hosers?)

* If that building wall is 8'-6" (or closer) to the center of track, the CA-PUC inspector ought to remove the track from service before some of Zug's buddies get hurt.

That's not bad at all...

We serve industries that a skinny person couldn't even fit between the railcar and the building.  Just have to know your industries, and if in doubt, walk 'em in.

Understand your point of view, Zugster. My frustration is with the industry and the guy with no concept of what a clearance envelope. Be glad your not with JeffH over in Iowa where they let the law lapse.

Doing something because it was cheaper or easier is not worth somebody's life. My wrath is directed at those that let that stuff exist. (I absolutely hate doing accident surveys caused by this stuff)
