Man I hate TV. Watching this makes me remember why I canceled TV 15 years ago. There are so many good youtube videos that have more information and no "actor" jerking around instead of showing us how a thingis built, why they do it that way, etc.

Well I can’t blame you because I was a TV addict when I was a kid but I realized watching television was pointless and so I switched to KZbin in 2013 and started watching documentaries. I continued watching documentaries such as “Extreme Engineering” or “Big Bigger Biggest Prison” they were fascinating when I was growing up in the 2010s. Now that I am 21, I am starting to realize how pointless these are. Their just an actor pretending to be a worker. I don’t like it all quite frankly. Being in education system from Kindergarten to 12th grade despite learning getting an A in high school level calculus and graduating with a 3.518 GPA it still doesn’t teach me real world problems and very rarely they do. Programming wasn’t even required at our school but you had to take English to learn how to do an argumentative essay 3 to 5 paragraphs long only to be pointless work to satisfy the education system it’s so pointless. The K-12 education loves having documentaries like this to give “Ooooh” and “Awwwe” to the audience. But they learned absolutely nothing about how it works. Again kids are young they don’t know schematics of a locomotive. Now our education system is using critical race theory and it’s really sad. I have been into trains since 2 years old. Honestly the only reason I would watch TV is sports and maybe a movie then and there but that’s it. I didn’t realize until how hard architecure school was that I realized documentaries are meant to give us fantasies. It’s so ridiculous. It takes away the real experience of life. Again the stuff I am saying the education system didn’t teach us we have to figure out ourselves. Life is our teacher.

Yeah well, the only reason you have all 3 axles powering each bogie, is because an Australian demanded this of EMD back in 1950/1 when tendering for the Victorian B class loco. Before that, it was A-1-A non powered middle axle. This set the standard

Oh God do you boomers have to complain about literally everything under the sun? You inherited the greatest economy in history and the height of labors power in America when you graduated and all you've done since then has been to fuck over each successive generation after yours. And yet you STILL find things to complain about.
