Melissa, <br />I just re-read my article and realized if this was english class i would have recived an F so let me clarify what i was trying to say. <br /> <br />the number 2 excuse i stated me need some clarifing. <br />The guy beofr he corssed the corrsing, noticed that only one of the red flashing lights were working. so he thoguht in some twisted way that it meant Proceed instead of Stop.. enebt thoguht thew gates were down. <br /> <br />anyhting else that was unclear other then the entire thing... <br /> <br />We have accidnrts on the train sometimes.. the funniest one was a month ago. CP rail decided they didn't want the old Telegraph poles beside the railroad anyomore.. so they took off the wires and began.. how do you say this in English.. you take a chainsaw and you...somehting a tree... this sounds stupid, but i don't know it.. what do you to do a tree when you have a chainsaw.. ok well it's time for Kevin to play make-up-the-word game.. so anyways, they were "chainsawing" the posts.. and they were falling one by one on the side of the tracks, so i honked the horn to symblize i was passing.. and they were progressing really well.. so i passed them at a restricted speed (i was going 25 at the time) and next thing you know i hear a CRASH! and a lot of glass breaking.. now the eninerr who was there ogt up from sitting beside me (we were in the control cab) and he looked back.. I got up too, but i had to stay close to the controls. We saw one of the poles had come through the window instead of falling the other way.. so we had this suge pole...with the insulators and all... stuck on the inside of the tain.. and on the outside.it was dragging and turning up the ground.. Anyways at the next station we pulled the stupid thing out of the trian with a little help from Passengers who have brute strength.. i'm not saying i don't have brute strength.. i kept one of the porcelain insulators that says CPR on it that fell off the pole and i use it as a paper weight on my desk. <br /> <br />speaking about nurses... <br /> <br />ladt week the guy i was working wiht cut his thumb on the closing door.. and he came in to the control car, i keep it locked now due to security reason so no one can sit in that car. <br /> <br />and his thumb was bleeding alot.. and he jsut yelled out... i swear everyone in the train must of heard... AHHHHHH!! Wheres the naked nurse?? (no offence) It was sooooooo funy.. i could hardly keep myself from breaking into hestericks.. then i wasn't watching and missed a signal.. so i hoped it wasn't red. the he ransaked the.. whats that thing called.. you know where thye keep bandaids, iodine, banadgaes kitchen sinks... in french its "premier soin" that doesn't help.. <br /> <br />so tell em if anyhtign else needs clearing up. <br /> <br />cheers, <br />kev
