Western Railroad Discussion > Backing Into BoeingDate: 10/27/14 18:23 Backing Into Boeing Author: Auburn_Ed Another fuselage is about to be made airworthy at the Renton (WA) plant.
Ed  Date: 10/27/14 19:33 Re: Backing Into Boeing Author: photobob Whats amazing when you look at that fuselage without wings and a tail its really not that large. Can you imagine putting 150 people into an object thats the size of a flatcar and then hurl them 5 miles up in the sky and shot them along at 500 miles an hour. I was once afraid to ride Space Mountain in Disneyland but I'll get on one of Boeing's rides without thinking twice.

Andre Date: 10/28/14 00:27 Re: Backing Into Boeing Author: Auburn_Ed No, this line diverges from the NP (BNSF) Seattle Sub at Black River (Renton/Tukwila).

It's hard to be fashionable out here with all this PPE. Pump Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 10/28/14 07:53 by UPTRAIN.
