Trains... Choo Choo, not the dirty kind. - Page 5

Let's not forget Casey Jones, probably the most famous train engineer of the era. He died with his hand on the throttle and the whistle in his hand. Famous for his runs in North Mississippi with speeds exceeding 80 mph in 1900 and numerous songs.

***NSFW Language***

Casey Jones was a son-of-a-bitch,
Drove his train into a 30-foot ditch.
Jumped out the window with his dick in his hand,
Said "Look out ladies, I'm a fucking man!"
He lined 50 women up against the wall,
Said "Spread your legs, I'm gonna fuck you all!"
He fucked 48 then his balls turned blue,
And he backed off, jacked off, then fucked the other two.
Casey Jones died and went to hell,
He fucked the Devil, and he fucked him well.
Little demons running up and down the walls,
Screaming "Kill this bastard, before he fucks us all!"

Or, something like that.

Doing the locomotion...

Back in post #27 we talked about McKeen light rail locomotives, some with oddball engines.
Well it seems the last one on the face of the earth has been located in Anchorage and shipped to San Diego to be restored. It had it's pointy nose cut off somewhere along the way.

They have a website to beg for donations and publish updates.
They're going to need a lot of it, they ran $2k over on just the shipping charges. I didn't see what the bill was.

Think of all the rubber tires the railroad saves.

glatt · 04-25-2016, 07:54 AM

That shit is heavy.

Gravdigr · 04-26-2016, 10:47 AM

I was thinking more of the wheel arrangement on the engine.

Looks funny.

It's a 50 ton Climax locomotive.

Quote:

A Climax locomotive is a type of geared steam locomotive in which the two steam cylinders are attached to a transmission located under the center of the boiler. This transmits power to driveshafts running to the front and rear trucks.

If you stay til the end, you get to see the 'engine'. The Emerald Night looks an awful lot like The Flying Scotsman.

Casey Jones on acid.

Looks like part of that track is temporary. Cool how the tunneled under the fence and shit.

I am impressed with that dude's setup.

fargon · 05-09-2016, 10:16 AM

xoxoxoBruce · 05-09-2016, 10:20 AM
