One of the great things about those old girls is that pretty much all you needed was a brake handle to beat uncooperative valves, some duct tape to stop air leaks and some newspaper and matches to heat up whatever got sticky undercar. You were pretty much expected to fix your own train back then and they were pretty easy to handle. I won't even go into used beer cans from the ground to substitute for shoe fuses when required. :)But strikes me as a sticky valve or a clog in the pipe. I have faith that there's still some folks down there who aren't afraid of kicking a train hard to make it move like the good old days. Heh. |
