This was a shot I dedn't realize I'd taken till I got home and looked at it. I simply wasn't paying attention. I've oftened wondered what was in the bucket...Ewww.

That's a neat photo - I can't quite read the bucket, but the "stuff" looks pretty clear. You have a lot of wind power in that part of California.

It is there water cooler. Some cheap a** railroads don't buy refrigerators in there locomotives. They give an insulated bucket with ice. Your food gets wet. It sucks!!! In some of the older NS locomotives the toilet was a plastic ring you put a plastic bag in and did your business(didn't believe it until I saw it). Tied the bag and put it in a bucket. NICE!!!

The title should have been "Bail faster, we're STINKING"

Great juxtaposition of old, polluting technology in front of the clean energy windfarm. The windmills were probably transported by train though...


:lol:
