!!!FUN!!! C&TSRR shops up-date

Carlos has the 1st week of May available.

Much easier to understand than a photo. 4 short videos of the machines in action. I have seen photos but after watching the machines working I have a much better understanding of what they do and how they do it.

Pneumatic Spiker

Cincinnati Shaper Machine

Niles Wheel Lathe

In the D&RGW days, workers with Hispanic names were pretty much limited to laborers jobs, either in the shops or on the track gangs. Now they're running the show instead of being second class employees with little chance of promotion. A history of discrimination in the rail industry would be an interesting read..

What movie viewer is needed to see these clips? I got the Mirosoft shrug dialog box to choose a viewer when I tried to watch the one with the wheel lathe.
