I live near the Danville line from Louisville, Ky ! Busy trackage. I worked as a Special Agent for Illinois Central Gulf after Viet Nam and Murray State Univ. East St. Louis was a terrible location for Railroads. I couldn't hack it and left! RIP Richard Saba! The Rajin Cajun" from New Orleans who lost his life there in October 1975!

This was fun. I spent lots of time in carbide light years ago while spelunking in Wisconsin. At the time, this was "state of the art" for lighting caves.

Originally, they were miner's lamps. Water goes in the base, and calcium carbide goes in above. When water and carbide mix it produces acetylene gas. The gas can be explosive, so it require caution. I once had a small cast iron cannon that used carbide & water to produce a rather loud bang.!

i figured that out the hard way at one point i was holding a fireball in my hand!
@foxtrap882610 ай бұрын
That sheet metal clip on the back was there in order to clip it onto a slot on a miner's hard hat. Those are there today but of course, use flashlights. Yeah, the hazard of a fireball at the end of my nose would discourage me too!@@bigjoe1274

I have no idea who owns the land anymore but it's not gated off nor are there any keep out signs and a lot of people go there. It is a popular place for cavers and target shooters because of how remote and big the place is. If you want to go and not run into hardly anyone other than the occasional railfan I suggest going during the week, on the weekends it can get busy especially during the warmer months.
