Big deal. I had a couple of times that my train encountered an automobile blocking our train. One time was in Rossville, Georgia-a car in a parking lot was parked too close. We stopped and the fireman went in to the business to see if the owner was there. Couldn't locate the owner, so I quickly decided simply to pick the rear of the car up and slide it over a few inches-that was all it would take to get the car out of the way, since it was an import. Four of us lifted the rear of the car up and moved it. The passengers who were in the vestibule watching got a good laugh-four railroaders picking up one end of a Japanese import auto and moving it. |
