Ahh, CN would still find a way to wreck it...

And then they would drop it off, as usual, an hour before the end of the day wanting it yesterday and then leave it in our yard for 3 months!

Really awesome ....reminds me of some of those big freeway paving outfits.   I see lots of hardface rod getting burned watching that thing work!!!

Yes sir Tommy, that is a maintenance welders delight or nightmare, depending on how you look at it. Certainly enough moving, grinding, and rotating parts to provide for plenty of repair and maintenance. I am sure that Stoody and others drool at the sight of that machine. Best regards, Allan
