I have no idea how cold it was today but you probably are not far off. At that point it don't matter it just plain suks crawling under rail cars and digging them out. Boys brought the Rerailers out so hopefully we can get car back on track. They are heavier than sin! Let my young uns wrestle them. Pix attached for any that have never had the pleasure of working rail cars.

Use to load and unload rail cars but never had to put one back on the tracks SLO.
Would think your week so far sucks. Let the young guys do the work stand back and let them put the rerailleurs down. Heavy **** and to damn cold to loose your new knees.

Besides I have my own Baseball team I can't remember all there names so real easy to put what on first and I don't know on second and so on. lol

Who's on first. Here we go again LOL

 

[Mark Wainwright]

My left knee has been in pain so not much sleep last night.
Just want to get the bottom side done so I can get back to the easier work Mark.
Really liked your post on MY LUCK. GM is making me real angry.

It's my left shoulder that giving me hell right now especially when I get into bed.
GM is sure getting a bad name around here. Toronto City Council has just announced they may not buy any G.M. vehicles made in Mexico. I know a lot of people in this area who have worked in the feeder plants for GM over the years won't buy their cars or trucks. One of the Dealers here in town has the nerve to have a Chev Truck on a pedestal with big lettering on it "Made In Oshawa".
I'm sure it will get damaged sitting out there. I stopped buying GM cars years ago. Working in Quality Control I saw some crazy stuff going on. Parts hot glued into place in the dash on the high end Impalas etc. I'd just shake my head. I probably goes on at the other manufacturing plants as well but just haven't seen it.

Well supper is ready so I'll be first to sign off. (Is there a prize for that too?)

My knees hurt just watching YOU work Fred. Physical therapy really helped my knees. Happened pretty fast. I always did it right before hunting season. You put your back against a wall and slide down like you are sitting in a chair and hold it till it burns good. rest and repeat. Works for me anyway. Everybody is different. Hope you get some better sleep old buddy.

First on again. Another cold morning -21 with the windchill and then snow starting around 9am they say. Don't think it's going to be a big deal around 10cm in our area anyway. So looking at 4" for you non-Canadians lol. Have a great day guys.

 

[Frodee]

Morning guys still cold but clear skies here.
Good idea BP will have to try that I don't have a problem with my knees just was kneeling on cement and I know better than that. Will be done on the under side today so all will be good.
