Tramps Hobos & Bums....
SD70DudeI can imagine that might be a touchy one for you Larry, seeing as you actually have to deal with CSX in the real world.
Well, CSX hasn't exploded here in my neck of the woods, but they've spilled a little, and crashed a few times...
To their credit, the only explosion I know of here came when a runaway from the military base hit some MOW equipment, causing a 20 lb propane cylinder to go...
Down on the Chicago line, that's a different story...
Larry Resident Microferroequinologist (at least at my house) Everyone goes home; Safety begins with you My Opinion. Standard Disclaimers Apply. No Expiration Date Come ride the rails with me! There's one thing about humility - the moment you think you've got it, you've lost it...
SD70Dude tree68 SD70Dude CSX = Crash Spill eXplode I don't usually get a good reaction from that one, either.... Now now, don't shoot the messenger, that one's been floating around online since I was a kid. I can imagine that might be a touchy one for you Larry, seeing as you actually have to deal with CSX in the real world. Now for a less violent one: CNR = Certainly No Rush And a "nursery rhyme" of unknown origin that could very well apply to any railroad: "Up the hill slow, down the hill fast. Tonnage first, safety last!"

Here's the verse I was taught.
"Up hills slow, down hills fast. Tonnage first, horsepower last. The rails are bad, the ties are worse. What's all this about Safety First?"
