[Healeys] Lost Keys

[Michael MacLean]

  Yes they do Rick.  Keys are mainly for switch locks.  There is a key for the back door of the cab.  You close and lock the front door from the inside and leave by the back door.  The caboose has door keys.  Even though the major railroads are not maintaining the caboose that are left, they use them for a shoving platform for a crew member to stand on and report to the engineer that is backing up a train when to stop or how fast to go.  I also have switch keys for Amtrak locks, UP locks and keys from the San Diego sub.  As a railroaded you have all kinds of keys.Mike M (former switchman, conductor and engineer on BNSF Railway)

Lost Keys have been found!  They were on a key rack in my bedroom where all the important keys reside such as the padlocks for the solar panel inverters, sliding glass door locks and old railroad keys.  I looked at that rack at least three times looking for the BN2 Keys and did not see them hiding behind a ring of railroad keys.  I was in the middle of going through all the Home Depot plastic storage bins of parts looking in every bag or box in these containers.  On a positive note I did find parts that are needed on stuff I am presently working on.  On the other side of the coin I found multiples like two extra sets of copper tubing for the float bowl to the cold air box overflow.  Now parts are buried again for the next treasure hunt.  I really have to get more organized.Mike MacLeanP.S. I never realized how many fasteners I really have.
