No, the homeless man was as high as a wind sock. 😂
Of COURSE you have the picture of the homeless guy taking a duke in the SD9. That's hilarious in retrospect but I'd imagine at the time was super frustrating.
I can just imagine the radio calls...
It’s not just the homeless… a certain urban railway museum has persistent problems with people posing for pictures among some large rusty parts. There’s plenty kept safely indoors, but some have to be stored outside and unfenced, due to space constraints. Sometimes the random art students/graduating seniors/goodness-knows-who can be, uh, scantily dressed, and sometimes… uh… NOT dressed!
I live just south of los angeles, i can only imagine what those poor bastards in a shop in LA deal with as far as homeless people.
And Hobart is near Skid Row which is a Famous Homeless Area in LA so I bet they get a bunch of Weirdos
Hyce: I've worked on the shop for 3 years.
Also Hyce: I'm set up with stories for the rest of my life.
Now you need a new song called Windsock Wife 😂
The Ole Windsock Waifu
On the top of Mt. Sand Tower. Taken by the Bad Men Syndicate Inc. LLC.
~"Call the police, dear Train Hyce Man!!! Call them here and call them now.
My windsock wife is stuck upon Mt. Sand Tower and I have to get her down!"~
Having worked at a railroad musuem right in the downtown of the biggest city in Canada, I can relate to this...
"No sir the cab of that 4-8-4 is not the home of your cats ghost..."
The homeless problem is a real epidemic. That being said, right after the country shut down for covid and people got the gov aid for covid, there was a lady that just walked down into the yard at my truck shop and came asking to use the phone. We had to tell her no, but before we could she walked off, went around the fence and went around the back of the lot. One of our mechanics went out to talk to her through the fence, and she said she was trying to get away from the sky people 😂
good *lord*
Wait for it….. she’ll be right one day!🤣🛸
Old railroad stories are best, even if they are morbid sometimes 😂
Yup...this sounds like the kind of stories I would expect out of Seattle. Makes me more and more glad I live in the somewhat-saner city to the south.
Yea Seattle is a shit hole. I was homeless there in 2013
I have to ask which city are you referring to that is sane next to Seattle because the next one I think of is Portland
@@scottcarpenter6443 Tacoma?
@@Motoko_Urashima maybe
Being a supervisor sounds like a total cluster F let alone dealing with high off their ass homeless folk.
tbh a lot of good stories come from that post or someweres in the open persay
I just want to remind everyone that not all homeless people are junkies or off their rocker. I was homeless in New Jersey for seven years and came across all kinds of people, good and bad. This is the kind of thing I ran into only every once ina blue moon.
So sorry to hear of that mate. It really is a mixed bag, and it's hard to know what you're getting into on the lead end as an outsider. Glad to hear you're doing better.
@@Hyce777 No, it's fine. 100%, huge mixed bag, and everyone has their reasons and stories... some people are truly without a chance because substance abuse has them by the balls. I was lucky to be raised in a way that I was smart enough to stay away from all that stuff, but not everyone has that privilege. Refer to Forest Gump for more info on what life is like!
While it might be true that it's a mixed bag, the majority of the *visible* homeless in california are the drugged up, crazy and potentially violent sort.
The people that have their stuff more together aren't noticed at all in comparison to a shambling heroin zombie.
Thank you for the stories and your empathy to those in less fortunate positions.
Mount Doom and the Eye of Sauron made me giggle. The description of the one-man-army supervision model made me want to scream and/or drink.
that first story sounds more like a psychotic episode than a bad trip, I could easily someone who's bipolar or schizophrenic who ends up on the street just out of rotten luck and can't get their meds ending up in that position, also I too would've wanted to let the guy with the kitten come in, well honestly I would've wanted to keep the kitten as a shop cat, I don't know how BNSF would feel about that, but I know Strasburg has a shop cat
6:25 I wonder what was like when they started that engine. 🚂💩💩💩🤣🤣🤣
Any stories involving the Daylight while you were up in Washington? Saw a Daylight plate behind you
First time I saw steam... I've got footage of that. I'll have to share that soon enough.
Cheers to Hyce doing his best of helping the Homeless from Wind sock wife savers to Fallen down Train hoppers, our Hyce sure has seen ipquite slot and done his best to help out. Cheers to you mate.
the princess is in another castle/tower
😂
Bro fr shat in the exhaust lol
*Looks at title.*
'What in the wide, wide world of sports...?'
6:31 nearly chocked on my food from laughing from this lol
hope the guy with the exploded knee is doing fine today
He definitely has a limp and significant range of motion limitations, if he kept the leg. It is not something you come back form without a LOT of physical therapy.
I saw the notification at a glance thought you were saying that it was me 😂
Lmao! You did it, you bastard! :P
Train horn sound you put when you say a curse word scared the hell out of me 🤣🤣
That was a good set if stories. I do like, "I like trains. I want to work on trains, not have to talk a guy off the tower." I shouldn't out quotes around that, putting words in your mouth. Sorry, Hyce.
Remember kids. If you do enough hard drugs, you may also end up in a locomotive repair depit
Railroading is an adventure!
I used to work nights for a bus garage in minneapolis, the amount of shit i saw that happened at 2am was unreal
Just like the hobo that crawled up in the cab of 1274 and made it his home for a few nights…. Until we found him in the cab and had to call in the cops to get him outta it so we could get stuff done to her. We could up putting a big door on her to keep him from getting in, out of fear that he “ may decide to crawl into the firebox and sleep in there “
Thanks for sharing Mark, such challenging situations. I felt for the sand tower guy, but the person who shattered his knee sent twinges through my own! Oh the pain he must have felt once that high wore off, OMG. Echoing you, I hope he fully recovered and got a new and even better drum. These will be the yesteryear RR stories of tomorrow for sure. You’re an excellent and entertaining story teller Professor, cheers to you!
6:26 trespassers just took a doo on a diesel stack and th8ni is a toilet 💀😭😭 6:45 Life as railroader couldn't get any worse
but hey Century of steam is coming up can't wait to try this and also I really like your model trains in the background on the shelf
You arent the only one ive heard talk about a homeless dude poopin in a stack. My friend used to work at CSX Elsmere yard here in Delaware and he told me a similar story
As a man with a drum I can confirm that is all that matters.
Haha, and I thought on my railway we were the only ones saying Amen when opening our eyes haha
Man am I glad that Mac Yard doesn't get much traffic of a homeless nature. I have a buddy who works in Halifax and he said that a homeless shelter is right next to the Dartmouth yard, and they have lots of similar issues.
6:29 we crappin in the stack🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I would like to point out how the first story could have been caused by a schizophrenia episode and not necessarily caused by drugs (though it could have just been drugs that caused it).
Fair enough; I'm not near enough an expert in these fields to comment on these things.
I wonder how many dooks a person could drop in the stack before it's gonna cause the tur(d)bo some issues. But for only a few small logs I bet the engine would just blow them out as soon as it fired up. That'd be a sight, a good brown mist flying out along with the smoke on startup lol
Responded as a paramedic to an injury at our local cold storage facility, they were getting a load of 200lb barrels of Parmesan cheese in, worker opened the door of the reefer box car and a barrel fell out. Yeah, he too had a bone or two sticking out!
I’d watch a reality tv show based on these events at inner bay
At the coal pier , we have a little sampling house on the belts that is run by contractors. They had a hire come in, dude showed up in slides and socks with a Mr. T starter kit around his neck. High as a windsock. No clue where he was supposed to be. They sent him home to get properly dressed, but we later found him crossing the hump yard totally lost.
There are many stories from the older heads of drunk people wandering the yard and being dumb on 3rd shift.
God I am having flashbacks to literally everything that I've done that work in the past two years. I work for one of the big-3 Airlines and so much of what you said rings true over there too
More Stories from the shop please, also this fulfilled the question I asked for most interesting story you could tell about the railroad that you can tell on stream. Which was for the Office Hours with proffessor Hyce in September.
I wasn't sure if I had told these before or not! I knew I'd told at least one of them. Glad they helped answer your question.
imma imitata that old man with an amen
I work for the city of Oakland CA. The good weather and lots of old decaying industrial areas and other factors and I've seen such an explosion of homelessness. On an inspection I had a woman who lives in an RV come up to me to ask if I was going to get the city to haul away the trash that was dumped near her. She said she tried to chase the dumpers away but could not. She wanted something better and is trying so hard to make the area around her better. Breaks my heart. Seems half the people hate and blame the unhoused and others are sympathetic.
The guy needing to charge his phone and bribing with a kitten is a good one. Much more wholesome than pooping down the stack.
as a second shift packaged meat worker, I can definately confirm the "1st shift did not pull their weight" sentiment completely. Anymore, its not a 'did we do better than first shift' question, its more of a 'how much did they not get done, and we now have to pick up their slack by a solid 60% extra just to keep the lines rolling'
When I was a groundskeeper supervisor our company had little to no procedures for dealing with the homeless or the occasional animals that would wonder the property border. Being left to my own devices I made a large sign that to the best of my knowledge is still up in the garage where all the equipment is kept and it read: "Everything is Hostile!".
When I would train our new guys I would point to that sign and order them to memorize it and then realize that *if* you can reach your phone, get security on the line assuming they pick up which 25% of the time they didn't, and *if* the elderly head of security wasn't working that morning, then you might have help at the edge of the property in 5 minutes or up to 10 minutes if things don't go right. All assuming you got a call off.
With help so far away you automatically were to assume that anything you meet at 5am was hostile and that you have to rush out of the area. Sometimes when possible I would send 5 man teams to work outside, 4 to work and 1 to watch with everyone rotating out of the watchman's position just because we had no other real options available to us.
the 1 censor scared the living piss out of me
Keep doing these they always get a laugh out of me keep up the good work hyce
I used to work in a big-box music store. In a mall. In Brooklyn NY. Boy, do I have some stories! Long story short though, don't buy anything off the floor. Have the factory send you a minty-fresh one! Trust me!
Holy hell you gotta tell me more stories this is so entertaining
Oh no it’s the template
Also your favorite guitar
I can't believe you guys didn't have a security team! Millions of dollars in equipment and only one dude watching cameras. Crazy.
If the first guy was high as a kite it would make sense for his wife to be as high as wind sock, should’ve climbed up and checked
I feel bad for the coal train guy. Vibing on a train with his drum, jumping off the train because it was going fast, poor bastard's knee explodes AND he loses his drum. I would feel bad for him.
when you are sure that full moon thing is not a thing, then people working industrial or night shift jobs or bot tell the stories :) :
Just another Day at Interbay
I was offered a lower management position in the food service industry once. I said no
Wait....so I can just walk into the shop and yell at people? You should not have told me this. I already bought a reverser handle so I can drive trains when the apocalypse happens.
I think it is really cool to see my name in the “special thanks” section
Nice video!
bro i opened youtube 30 secs after this posted. Hi Hyce!
please do a video on
the porters steam loco
the class 48 tank engine
the Japanese class d51 nick name hero of the railways.
how do gear trains work
something on saddle bolier tank engines
one talking about the different types of steam funnles and there uses,
a short video on how a Armstrong turn table works
the different types of cut offs/reversers/Johnson bar
some are a big lever, some are a big valve wheel, and ive also seen some that are like rods, one exsample is train sim world 3 and im not sure where to find the other reverser
Got an unrelated question. When will we be able to see 346 in steam again?
Couple years still, most likely.
You know, I'm pretty sure you could talk about pretty much anything with your guitar music in the background and we'd listen.
just all the shit you see them pull makes the fact that they have the Gaul to get mad at you when you remove them from the premisise all the more infuriating.
hay marke there is big news you're going like there is a new map and locomotive in railroads online
Lol these are funny!
t h e b a d m e n
It tis a shame that guy lost his drumb.
Oh the life of a railroader 😁👍
I bet you i knew that kid that blew the knee.
For the algorithum!!
"All hail the algorithm!"
What in your band what type of music do you play
If i thought about it in 2013 when i was homeless there mark i would've harassed you for a job
What is the deal with the B-unit Hero sitting on the I assume dead track at interbay?
The GP60B in front of 16th Ave?
I have had homeless try to give me money.
you have seen my coat ! they think that I'm homeless also!
play the new railroads online update
Omg Windsock WIFE
You're a bad trip sitter Mark
This was a pretty funny video Hyce. Thank you. I know you said "we focus on trains here," but I really think this conversation would be improved with some more thoughtful, friendly and sympathetic talk on the widespread issue of homelessness because it's already such a central theme to this video. I know you mean well but and you did in fact share some nice thoughts, but I fear that a viewer could still leave the video without some due introspection/thoughts on homelessness in which all of us in our society have a small partial responsibility for. Anyway, I love your videos and keep up the good work.
hyce can you play railroads online with kan again
no
They killed my wife...
Obligatory comment for the algorythm.
Nah just kidding lol. The absolute bullshit that happens at places sometimes, you just can't make it up. You've got to have seen it. And considering what our planet is for a place, I have no trouble believing these stories. Lmao.
Absolutely zero sympathy for the homeless man in this story. Seattle is a shitshow and is getting what they deserve from the public policies they voted for.
He is homeless and on drugs because he was married
kek.

Gotta love Lib cities for RR stories!
Not first
The unsheltered community prefer the terms "unhoused" or "persons experiencing homelessness." The terms "homeless" is extremely offensive. Additionally, I find it very problematic that you assumed the gender of the unhoused individuals you told stories about without asking them their pronouns first.
Don't laugh. Wind socks deserve love too...
