Railroaders place to shoot the shit.

Listening to BNSF radio waves today late afternoon and the Everett-Long View Jct
EVELVJ was leaving Delta Yard and going up the SeaLine and the engineer called
Delta Yardmaster said the train went into emergency...think we broke apart. The
Yardmaster answered "what". So much radio chatter that I dint hear if the train
did come apart but the train jammed up the "flow of traffic". Think it backed all the
way back into Delta Yard. Thought I heard somebody say it was the locomotive that
"did it". So an hour+ later the EVELVJ calls again for a line-up the Sealine at PA Jct
and on the move out of Delta again but the "horn" on the lead unit fails after the
first crossing which would be RR Ave and the train is stopped again and blocking
a crossing for "X-amount of time". The EVELVJ is requesting help to get the horn
working again and a TM is on his way. Then after the Dispr takes down all the signals
and before the TM can arrive the EVELVJ says they did something to get the horn
to work again and want to proceed again. 3rd time/attempt a charm as the train
made it out of town with delays to many other trains. MIR shadow period shit I'm
thinking at its earliest.

Then this comes across the "derailment headlines" about the UP got a sizeable derailment
in Portland OR.

A: blow horn from second unit.

MIR Railroad news....MIR+ Sun square Mars Sunday "had something to do" with a
couple derailments. BNSF puts 17 cars on the ground on the Brookfield Sub near
KC. Then a 2-car derailment on the busy NS Alabama East End Sunday has trains
backed up everywhere.

Probly already discussed in chat...the UP rear end crash in Monahans West Texas.
Big pile of boxcars and engines on their side. The major celestial aspect of Sun conjunct Uranus
was exact.

That's the state taxpayer funded/state supported G&W scab outfit that stole the port work from NS crews at the end of the old Norfolk, Franklin, and Danville (NF&D/N&W). They use NS and CSX power to build the trains and bring them out close to the mainlines.

In the late 80's, LAMCO decided they would never send a T&E employee into the City of Portsmouth, VA due to FELA lawsuits from all over the system being filed against them in Portsmouth courts. They have been true to their word. They severed all trackage that was in the city. The Virginian mainline is in Chesapeake, VA and one side is the city line. You could walk off the right of way and be in Portsmouth, but your LAMCO train was in Chesapeake.

It has cost them many tens of millions in lost container business to CSX. They set up the scab line to serve a BASF chemical plant. They gave them a 20-year option to buy the land. Chemical plant went bust, railroad was on the rocks, but ran through neighborhoods (see picture) to access the only huge tract of land available on the river.

Maersk invested almost a billion in a container port and almost went bust in the downturn. The day before the option to buy the land RailTex (or whichever scab outfit it was at the time around 2008) bought it for $8 million from LAMCO. VA Republicunts signed sweetheart forever lease deal with Maersk for the state port authority to lease and run, funded the scab line with over $50 million in rebuilding and relocating money. That allowed CSX into the ports without using Norfolk and Portsmouth Beltline involvement. Less than a month later, CSX had taken all of the Maersk traffic SINGLE STACKED from LAMCO.

PS: Fuck 'em all.

So on May 13th A CSX Coal train derailed in Newport News yard and screwed things up.
Celestial weather for this one would be Mercury square Mars conjunct Uranus. Applaud
all the trains that dint derail over the weekend. I feel more comfortable telling what astro-
aspects were in effect "after". My accuracy rate is higher.
