The light at the end of the tunnel might be an oncoming train.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electical problem.

you only need two tools in life, duct tape and WD40. If it dosen't move and it should, use WD40. if it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape.

someone has to set a bad exsample. :)

pissing people off, one person at a time. :P

there's a fine line between 'fearless' & 'stupidity'.

they rarely exceed that in todays world but when railfanning the norfolk southern pittsburgh line it's not uncommon to seen a coal train with 150 cars. those trains can weigh upto and over 20,500 tons! that's a shit load of weight so the next time anyone wonders why a train can't stop on a dime you'll know why.


Imagine that being pulled by an old UP Big Boy through the west..**imagines how great it would have been to see**
