Train Unloading Failure

submitted by eric3579

A brand new EMD GT46C-ACe was dropped while being unloaded from the cargo-ship at dock. Not sure of the root cause yet but this one is going to be expensive to fix. -yt

"Did I do that?" --Steve Urkel

gravity affects locomotives too?

Someone in that shipyard needs to write, "The Ballad of the Day They Dropped The New Train."

..cause that's a shipload of money worthy of a song!

I think that crane operator needs re-training. I think his boss has his sights trained on that guy. He's going to be sent back home to, um, train the grape vines.

OK, I'll stop.

gotta lift with your knees!!

Those marks? Don't worry they'll buff right out of there. The train? No not the train , that's fucked. I'm talking about the concrete platform.

Anybody know where?

I've noticed a disturbing trend in Videosift lately. WTF is up with these single slow motion repeats without circles or arrows to show me where to look? Dangerously matured, I think. DANGEROUSLY matured.

Ohhh SNAP!

Bullshit. If duct tape had been employed here there would be no problems.
