Contest Entry - Team Track becomes RIP Track
Author: wjpyper

February 1999, San Luis Obispo, UP #3287 had to be repaired in place. I saw a guy crawl under there. He's braver than me.

If he crawled under it without blocking, jack stands, etc., he is an idiot. I like trains, but I don't want it to be the last thing I see before I go to that big HO layout in the sky.

Strong words, do you have experience in this field?

The railroad I work for calls Hultcher or Corman in to do this kinda work with the use of sidewinders, I have never seen them use blocks or jack stands.
