This is a video of me riding inside the cab of a “pusher” locomotive from Kansas City, Missouri, to New Orleans, Louisiana.
A “pusher” locomotive is a unit that helps push the train when it’s in mountainous territory or if it’s very heavy.
These pusher units have no crew on-board and is radio remotely controlled by the lead locomotive on the front of the train. So, you’re alone and can sit back and relax and really enjoy your ride! These units have a small refrigerator, bathroom, (like on a Greyhound bus), heater and AC and it’s a very comfortable ride when the weather is crappy outside.
You can tell I was taking Oxycontin in this video just by how sluggish my voice is. That’s why I hate these pills and love my newly found friend,……..poppy seed tea! lol!
Here’s the link to this video. I hope you enjoy! 😉
You all have a nice evening. ~~~
