I mentioned the Mars conjunct Saturn aspect can lead to "frustration". Don't see it very often or at all where an engineer gets "this frustrated". Glad its not BNSF or UP. Don't see this very often or at all...I already said that. Engineer tried to crash train into USNS Mercy in Los Angeles

While damn near every day there's something happening on our North American (Canada, USA, and Mexico) railroads, but not lately. As a result, we have no news to report! Stay tuned to this forum however as something noteworthy is likely to happen soon! Thanks for reading!

If it happens. Because the trees that haven't been cut down, will stand for a few more years. This may keep our roads, especially I-5 a bit less clogged! [url]https://democratherald.com/news/intermodal-transportation-facility-coming-to-mid-valley/article_dd320fd6-fe03-5094-899a-...
