    This is a pic of a train that rolled by like two(2) minutes after I called in the all clear when I had Casper stuck next to a set of tracks in Tucson.

    You can see Casper. I'm in the dock. Dock is next to the tracks.

    Heavy tain washed away a bunch of the dirt, and trailer hit the drives.

    Immediately called the RR number. Twisted the leveling valve up got trailer up and moved.

    This is chronicled on early days of the thread.

    But dang if that train wasn't stopped just around the bend.

    Always call.

    You’re going to need to turn the heat down using those.
    Now you get to start practicing your french chef skills doing the flip and toss methods.

    No, that wasn't my truck. Just a photo of the truck wash is what was intended.

    Almost got stuck on some tracks on a goat trail in the east Texas woods. Messed up the feet on the landing gear a little.
