Headline News ....
Train derails on overpass ... Lands on a line of trucks ! Traffic was spared delays as derailing train on overpass fall onto a line of Flatbed trucks going under in perfect timing to catch all the cars as they fell . Police and train employees astounded , no injuries reported . The trucks kept going to a site farther down the rail line so the train could be craned back onto the track . The train continued on with a new crew . |

"This may work for one or two trips but I still think we need to figure out how to fix the brakes so the locomotive can pull the train back down the mountain."
"That's the legendary Narrow Gauge of Poughkeepsie, cursed to travel the country in search of the line that never was." "The engine looks good, sure, but have you checked out that caboose?" |

;) Now that I think about it: my guys didn't even wear a helmet or goggles, or coveralls. Just street clothes. I had a sweater that had a bunch of holes burned in it, because they could control the direction the sparks would shoot and they would aim them at me (just for fun). Flint Line 2 (Blazer and Suburban) cab shop shown. Line 2 was an old school manual process. Flint Line 1 (pickups) was highly automated; you fed panels in one end and a pickup cab popped out the other. |

The variation would be in the door opening as a result of piecing it together from all the separate bits. That's why vehicles today the door opening (or entire body side) is stamped from one piece: to minimize that variation. K |
