I saw a lot of them that loose as a kid. We would use a railroad

scary part was it was a private line that was used by a steel mill 10
miles away to haul slag. The bridge had a platform half way across, so
people could get off the track if a train came around the bend while
they were near the middle.


Yeah well, if I were iggy, I'd just call a crane and leave pulling everything out to them. Its probably safer too, because all this speculation and do-it-yourself crap is for the birds.



I'm sure you would, since you never do anything but complain.
