Local flatbeding adventure

Figured I'd start this since Boyd's local system is a few months old.

Day 1- Started this morning hoping my shaker would be out of the shop, well it wasn't and CSX was complaing every 10-15 minutes that the train was getting closer. Gwen had enough and threw the keys for a Prostar at me, went and loaded it and got to CSX's yard just has the train got stopped. Had to bobtail to a truckstop to rescue a load from a broken down truck, dropped that off in Toledo and went for a reload. EGR at the P/U went out on the scale. I'm responsible for causing 12 trucks to miss their P/U time and delayed the outbound flow for 4 hours. Truck should be out of the shop later today.

 

Some first day, right? Truck spending the night at International, the EGR is fixed. They just need to put the engine back in one piece.
