    The top news is great! Passenger boards owning tracks will likely help them improve service on them.

    The IRM one is correct. How we have fallen.

    When I first saw the idea of a Class 60 being converted into a weird modern steam thingy, my initial reaction was similar to that complete and utter abomination of an AC6000CW on the Aberdeen, Carolina and Western.

    As usual, I found this video quite informative! I didn't know, for example, that those Norfolk Southern corridors have been purchased. I'm looking forward to seeing how the VPRA and CATS's new lines are used.
    Thanks for the video!

    There haven’t been any special paint NS C6Ms since the Sonicbonnets, so I’m more than happy we now have 4822.

      Unfortunately, car drivers has more voters than commuters, so go figure.

    I can imagine the memes. On gates and the reactor build.
    First time there is problem. "Please turn off and and restart your reactor" and the le scram button will likely be labeled something like "launch reaction"

    Thanks for posting! I am unclear on the monomer spill. Did they initially test and conclude polymerization began (or something rendering it safe) and it was therefore safe to do a certain type of release, which in retrospect should not have been done (knowing now the true monomer test results)?

    • @Pensyfan19
      @Pensyfan19  Před měsícem +1

      Yes and no. Initial temperature reads showed that the monomers were reaching or had reached a temperature that would cause polymerization. I couldn’t find anything about testing the during the fire, as if they did then the results would not have lined up with their (now incorrect) data.

    So NS car men were at fault, ok. 2 people in a loco cab is enough, 3 if theres either an engineer in training or conductor or road foreman... so bad idea.
