I miss running holland mobile welder 552 out of Winnipeg all the way down east to Armstrong Station in northern Ontario with my brother as my welder helper. I worked under Sean Sertic from Sioux Lookout to Armstrong and under Joe Batista out of Kenora to Winnipeg Manitoba. Worked with a cn repair gang my 1st year then I graduated to welder supervisor and worked Sioux Lookout for Sean Sertic for the next 3years. Some of the best times I ever had working was with Joe and Sean. The holland welder is one amazing piece of railroad equipment. It turned the gap between the rials to be welded into an arch, which brought the rail temperature through over 2000 C•. And forged the rail ends into one piece. The rail pullers were capable of pulling 180 tomnes of presssure on a closure weld

Like other said earlier, lot of personnel! Not long ago they would have fewer people, doing it by hand, and getting it done quicker. The days of the Gandy Dancer is long gone. Thanks for sharing! 😃

Worked for the Milwaukee Road for many years. Can’t believe we did everything by hand. You guys got it made.

For those wondering where this track is and why it isn't up to 21st century European standards - based on the signage on the signal box, this intersection is located just East of the Canadian National yard in Calgary Alberta at milepost 124.55 on the Three hills subdivision. that runs up to Mirror, Alberta. That is where there's a lot of production of crude oil from the tar sands. The brown building in the distance is the Niitsitapi Learning Centre, 3743 Dover Ridge Dr SE, Calgary, AB T2B 2E1, Canada

I'm guessing the crew has a short maintenance window. And I know for sure a railroad won't pay for more personnel than are actually needed to complete the job in the time alloted.

Jeeez . . . the amount of machinery they've got there, you'd they were relaying 20 miles, not just one length! And *SPIKED* track?? In the 21st century? Those things are at least a century behind the times!

In Europe, maybe. But in North America, excluding rail laid on concrete ties and "special trackwork", spikes are the standard rail anchor on the vast majority of track.
@Sven_Okas1967Ай бұрын
Yes, why should you think outside the box when it comes to modern track construction? We continue to do this as we did 100 years ago. The most modern superstructure in North America that I have ever seen is the one from Bright-Line to Orlando. Wooden sleepers are slowly dying out here in Germany. nailed superstructure is no longer allowed after several serious accidents since the 1920s. And a perfectly made concrete sleeper will last at least 50 years. Thanks for that Video and breetings from Berlin/ Germany. Sven
