Nice truck! I guess that is the closest you can get to a real locomotive on the road!

What kind of trains do you pilot? It's either a GE or a GM, isn't it? I worked with the GM guys from Goletta a few years back on headlight aim.

Alright, another westsider! I live in Canton, too. Glad to you have you on the board.

My father-in-law worked for CSX for 27yrs as a brakeman. He is now retired. He has told me some really wild stories about stuff he saw through the years on the R.R.... He had at least 3 suicide incidents while he worked there. People just laying down on the tracks in front of the train. In fact, he has had some serious psychological challenges as a result of some of the things he saw while working as a brakeman. Definately not an easy job.

Anyway, sorry to run on about this stuff. Good luck to you and hope to see you around some this summer!

Sorry, I made a mistake on the company he worked for. My wife reminded me that it was Grand Trunk. He road several different routes through the years. She said that he road Port Huron to somewhere for a while. He also road to Flatrock sometimes. Normally he worked midnight shift which really messed him up for a while. His body clock was all out of sorts from doing it for so many years...
