  • @ahomick i love welding but if i get the chance to use thermite i will

  • @coldblue9mm Used in American sckyscrapers as well - A endorsed by GW Bush.

  • @ahomick You're talking out your ass. This is very much in use today on American railroads. This is called "Field Welding" and is done by local welders on districts everywhere. Flash butt welding is great but is used more in a production type setting, ie large rail gangs, projects and so on. So get back under your bridge you troll. You know nothing. And NO, this isn't how CWR is made, it's how CWR stays CWR when you have to cut in a replacement rail due to defects.

  • booo... buy a flash butt welder!!!!!! This is OBSOLETE.

  • I wonder if this is how CWR is made?

  • @toastfan902 Hmm, "Thermite Railroad Wedding" Now that sounds like something you could come across in redneck land.

  • at first i thought the title said wedding

  • rofl nice short sleeves
