[quote="tommudd"]I operate this every day with my Co-engineer Tony, all 630 tons of it

Tom I wish we had the power that thing had in its day, but that thing is so heavy it would spread the rails or pop off one of the very sharp curve tracks we have :banghead:

Articulated, 12-probably 60" drive wheels, about 4500-5000 HP, somewhere around 80-100K lbs tractive effort, would have been nice (and fun) to operate that baby, not institutional like a diesel locomotive...MEH

Finally back working on CNC equipment!!!! Travel from shop to shop working on other peoples junk :BANANA:

I absolutely love it!!! Kinda like the superman of the machining industry cause when in house maintenance can't fix something they have to call us.

BTW, if anyone needs any battery or wiring stuff, I can get it at cost.

Here is a catalog of the stuff they have. Everything from spade and butt connectors, to battery trays and boxes, to split loom and cable ties.

I go to school full time and work full time as a dispatcher for a local university's campus police (not the school I attend, though). I'm currently pondering the military idea. Something I've wanted to do for a long time.

I just spent 12 years in the Navy and got out last year if you have any questions. I will give you straight answers that the recruiters won't.
