    Btw, this is my last week of having anything to do with rail yards. I start with a company running a dedicated run pulling propane tanks. I will not miss CN at all.

    Issue with rails. Theres so many. And i still dont know everything. Like how to flip, find mechanic. Im learning as each day progresses on. But theres so much issued. At csx 71 every 40 foot tsxz was garbage. I had to fix 2 tires. No choice
     
    HalpinUout Thanks this.

    I hear that. I'm a regular at the road ability line. It just wouldn't be right to find a chassis in good order :cool:

    Ya it's a mess for sure. I've picked up some chassis that are from the late 1960's into the 70's... Old junk for sure
     
    4noReason Thanks this.
