Kabar,
Ok i just finished reading this entire thread ,it took about a total of 6 hours over the last few weeks. Im plannin a cross country trip to Toronto in summertime . the farthest ive gone so far is about 90 kilometers , and my graffiti experince has taught me alot about trains and yards so that helps . But i just wanted to thank you for all the info i didnt know , which was alot .
I have a bunch of questions that have come up to me that may seem dumb or easy to figure out if i thought them through well enough but i might get the wrong answer so i might as well ask someone who knows . Hope you feel like answering them , Heregoes......
These phrases i dont understand . Classification side of the apex , Retarder , Road unit (engine?) , Goat , Hump apex , Classification yard .
Why is being inside the cut a world of shit ?
Is it advisable to ride Solo ?
How do you tell whether your train is being pulled up over a hump apex ?
Dont you worry about being seen when riding in a ttx 48 ?
How is one supposed to get into a sleeping bag when theyre in a grainer hole at night ?
When waiting for a your train to get goin dont you need to worry about workers spotting you as the do there work ? Or are they cool with it ?
Is asking workers always a good first choice , bc in graffiti we try to avoid them at all costs .
What do you think of riding the second/last Engine ?
What do you think of Wes Modes ?
I know its alot but i was keeping a list as i read the thread . If you dont feel comfortable answering them on here feel free to email me at Diligentdesign@hotmail.com , or if you just dont want to then i guess im s.o.l.
THANKS again for all your insights , i find myself unable to stop reading a good long kabar story .
