Snicker!!

"lost a track on a 113" !! Oh my, that's funny, Mike!!

Snicker snicker!!

Anyway, I can't say it's ever happened to me in my Lynx time. 113's were "different" in many respects. They went in deep snow all right. Couldn't do that in a Lynx. We would take the Lynxs onto the Trans Canada from Pet to Cobden and get up to 50-55mph. No track breaks bur occasionally shed a track pad. That's where veh spacing comes into play as they arc up and back from the veh in front towards you. I once had a 577 up to 62mph. That was fun.

I finally pick up the book tomorrow.
