People talk about the trans issue because it is a social contagion consuming a generation of children and it is an assault on objective truth at a level never before seen. - Matt WalshOriginally Posted by TheCount
One would think the "dead man" would have stopped that.
Trains don't just take off on their own.
Right, they have a "Dead Man's Switch" that has to be held by the engineer.
Used to be a pedal. Now it's a motion sensor. No motion for a set period of time? An alarm sounds. Still no motion in the cab? Shutdown.
"Trump was just a chuckle-headed sucker" is not an effective sales pitch.
Yes, I saw a movie where somebody put a toolbox on the pedal.
Now how could there be a runaway these days?

There is a Chinese cemetery nearby. Just sayin'.
It's weird if you look at Kelso, CA on google maps, then zoom out, there's a bunch of other nearby town names with nothing there.. not sure why. There are some buildings in Kelso, but just straight up desert in some of the neighboring towns.

Why does everybody cream their jeans about how "beautiful" California is?
From what I've seen, most of it is ugly ass boiling hot desert...the dark side of the moon has prettier real estate.

Republican train trying to escape the state. Lived by the Roll Free or Die motto.
The desert is a cool place to visit in the fall and spring. The eastern Sierras are amazing. Then you have coastal Southern California, which is the most temperate place on the entire planet. It's like always 70 degrees. Big Sur, redwood forests in the north. Mendocino coast.

Because in the 1880s, a steam locomotive would go approximately a hundred miles on a tender full of water. So, water facilities had to be provided at regular intervals, and since alpha-numeric garbage was not yet the fashion, they got proper names.
As for why these water stops are now ghost towns, I guess not everyone can be suckered to go live in the inhospitable desert by a few photos taken with an orange filter to make the browns pop.
