I wrecked some box in the back of a cutlas cierra along a small creek in Memphis Michigan. It was some time around midnight, late summer/fall, thunderstorm, under a huge red oak tree, walking in memphis playing on the tape deck....
I will never forget how fucking uncomfortable those metal seatbelt clips are when they're jammed in your ribs.
Actually filmed in the fall of 86...the kid in the other football jersey is the son of the guy who started lens crafters
Comedy classics!! I don't think there was a back seat worse for wrecking box than the mid 70s camaros
68 Bug had the Gyno straps at the pillars!! They rocked!!
The ultimate was the 69 Bug!!
Well, a belated good morning to you all also.....sorry to not chime in earlier, but today was my Friday trip, and I was running from the moment I got to the station. I hope you had a great day, mine was the usual. Crisis resolution and haul ass....Steve, thanks for the vids, that is my all time favorite RR song, as it talks about an era long gone from our times....a lot of the guys around when that song was written were my mentors and taught me the craft of running a train. I miss the talks and the stories they told....RIP in peace old friends....
No. Before the metrolink crash we could, now after that, the Dems on the hill freaked out and added all these laws governing us and we can hardly breathe up there any longer it's so tight. If I am in the cab car I leave the door propped open and place a red flag across the aisle to keep folks out. But certain people I will let come forward to the edge of the cab and stand there and watch me do my thing. I only have two rules, A. Turn off your cell phone, and B. do not come across the threshold from the car into the cab itself. If you are a pretty girl or a woman with a couple of kids that are well behaved I will let you sit ahead of the flag if the train is crowded. I do not believe in splitting up families if at all possible. So the answer is yes, kinda, I do. LOL....in the cabcar, but never with the engine itself. But trust me, your not missing anything, they ride like rocks.
Roughly 400 round trip....
Video of me coming into Merced just before Christmas 2008.....there are quite a few of me on Youtube if you know where to look.....;)
