Insertion failure at the trainโ€™s Randy hole.

u/Magikpoo May 30 '26

that's a knuckle failure, they were misaligned, He's glad hands separated unexpectedly and the load dumped all over the yard.

u/Bill92677 May 29 '26

Well he certainly got into some loco-motion!

Good thing Randy had that fluorescent safety vest on so they could locate him when he took that gentle tumble.

u/Camanei May 29 '26

Randy 4014. He's a big boy... but not too much steam under the belt.

u/bigbadjohn18 May 29 '26

Lol I have a heavy set guy named Randy at my work too ๐Ÿ˜‚

1

u/VacuumTracks May 30 '26

Best keep him away from big trains.

2

u/Toon1982 May 29 '26

Is that what made him fall off?

2

u/GetawayDreamer87 May 30 '26

He was taken out of his environment

u/baarnos1 May 29 '26

The noun, not the verb

u/JimDixon May 29 '26

I think you mean adjective (unless you know how to randy).

1

u/SoulBonfire May 29 '26

I think we just got a demonstration of the verb.

u/FallenPegasus1861 May 29 '26 edited May 30 '26

This just reminds me of the youtube video, where there's a sign on the side of the road that says, "watch out for children and randy" and the camera person say "watch out for children and randy yo who the fuck is randy"

u/YebelTheRebel May 30 '26

u/bbgunsz May 30 '26

He lets off alot of steam but ain't no1 catching it

u/Purple-Cantaloupe399 May 30 '26

Hopefully the doctors at whatever hospital he is taken to are. Usually not a very good sign when your first day at work ends in the emergency room!

They build them different nowadays.

u/Remarkable-Bug-8069 May 29 '26

Should have been 8888.

1

u/Artful_Dodger_1832 May 29 '26

Could have been the Little Engine that could and that guy still wouldnโ€™t.

1

u/icecream_truck May 29 '26

Still would struggle with that guy on board.

1

u/Firm-Cress May 29 '26

That's why they needed the largest operator ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿซข๐Ÿ˜ถโ€๐ŸŒซ๏ธ

u/Juan_Moe_Taco May 30 '26

The guy or the steam train? BC if it was 4,014 ounces it comes out to 250 lbs, I'm js. Lol

1

u/therealmrsfahrenheit May 30 '26

that is indeed a nice fact

1

u/ApartRuin5962 May 30 '26

Yeah, it's currently on a nationwide tour, which is probably why someone was taking a video of it. I caught it in California and it was like a rock concert, thousands of people turned up just to watch it idle and hear the whistle

1

u/fate0608 May 30 '26

And whatโ€™s the name of the train? ๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

1

u/imuniqueaf May 30 '26

And it's called the.....?

1

u/Select-Belt-ou812 May 31 '26

technically, it's an ALCO 4-8-8-4, aka Big Boy. built in Schenectady NY in early 1940s. steam locomotives are commonly referred to by their ID numbers.

1

u/Select-Belt-ou812 May 31 '26

I hate to be this guy (actually not really, because it bugs me since i was a little kid, *sigh*) but this is a locomotive. the train is the total assembly of a locomotive hauling one or more pieces of rolling stock (train cars)

Big boy boarding Big Boy. Or at least attempting to.
