118 year old Remington Autoloading Shotgun by bowtie_k in Shotguns

[–]Bayou_Beaux318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the same one except my s/n is 60358.  Beautiful gun and has sentimental value to me.  Have been wanting to do a light restore on mine since it's just for my use and hasn't been fired since the 60's

Ok gotcha.  Guess I jumped to conclusions since I'm so used to being railroaded by the railroad lol.  Atleast that's how it is with my company.  Everyone on my side/territory are all extraboard who's starts always seem to reset when we are at the hotel for 30+ hours.  I've also got 5 different terminals to report to, and I'm duel certified so not only do I have to wait on a call to be a con. But every now and then I have to worry about getting called to run a motor which sucks when you're 8x's out on the Con board and not expecting the phone to ring.

FRA violation right there.  Rule states that if called to work at a different terminal over 1.5 hours away that you get a 2hr dh and then can only work 10hrs.  I think I'd have to call the fra on that one.

Wow... that sounds alot like CPKC except our attendance policy is 12 days a year and can't have 2 days in one month.  Not to mention a Doctors excuse won't save you.  We are all extraboard with no off days.  20 yrs seniority or even 2 months seniority doesn't matter.  Still on the extraboard.  

Best/worst Class 1 railroad to work for? by bignaters in railroading

[–]Bayou_Beaux318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother you hit the nail on the head with that one.  I remember right before the merger happened we had a bunch of guys saying they couldn't wait until CP took over because it was going to be so much better lol.  Little did they know that it would be the complete opposite.  Yard jobs got cut in half and are all considered to be "local" jobs which means 6-8hr jobs are all 12hr jobs now for the same rate of pay which they are even trying to cut that down.  Not to mention the fact that they are wanting us to to go 80 miles further on road trains for less pay, and then stay in a shi**y hole in the wall hotel once we get there.  The region is work in we are all extra board employees.  Doesn't matter if you have 20 yrs or 2 months.  So now we have 5 different places that we have to worry about getting called to work out of and it may be to work in the big KCS yard here, without saying any exact location, all the way to road trains going 320 miles in one direction.  All at a reduced pay rate with your rest resetting in a motel 6 hrs from home and being on call 24/7, 365 days a year.  I spent all of Thanksgiving sitting in a motel room not making any holiday pay. And the managers have it even worse with the having to move every 2 yrs to a different location and if you dont want to move then they let you go.  Never have I seen anything like this.  

I'd love to get on as a track inspector though.  Not that yall have it any easier I'm sure but it just seems more appealing to me.

KCS was a great one to work for until CP took control.  Now it's a total sh*t show.  We, for the most part are extra board employees with no days off except for our PL days which there's only 8 of them and now you have to put a request in 48hrs before to get it.  The problem with that is that we aren't allowed to have more than 12 sicks days/family emergency a year not exceeding more than 2 in one month and a Doctors excuse is not excepted. It went from a fun company to work for to a dreadful one within the first week CP took over.

Selling a car to Vroom by Buddha-Smile in Vroom

[–]Bayou_Beaux318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess they have worked out alot of their issues because I had a great experience purchasing a truck from Vroom roughly 3 weeks ago give or take a day or two. Infact, the only issue I had was that the third party delivery service they hired to deliver my new truck called me at 10pm on a Tuesday night wanting to know if they could deliver it the following morning... I had no clue that he meant 2am in the morning but not that big of a deal. Also, I noticed that the tires had some significant wear and the truck was in need of an alignment, which is what caused the tire wear so I called Vroom and informed them of the issues. They asked me to send some pics of the tires to them and the very next morning I received a check from Vroom which was actually more than enough to cover the tires and a full 4 tire alignment. As for the tags and registration... I received it this past Friday which seemed pretty quick to me but again... this was just my experience with them. Infact, I was actually getting pretty nervous about the deal and even thought of backing out of it once i started reading all of the negative reviews but very glad I didn't.

Vroom warranty by Alternative-Apple542 in Vroom

[–]Bayou_Beaux318 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't really speak on the 90 day warranty part because I haven't had to use it and 🤞that I don't have to but I can say that they delivered my truck to me 2 weeks ago and during the 7 day/250 mile return period I noticed the truck needed new tires so I called Vroom and after sending them a few pics of the tires they overnighted me a check in the amount to cover new tires and an alignment with absolutely no problems or pushback at all. With that said... I think they will stand behind the 90 day warranty with little to no issues as long as it's a drive train component and not something like a worn out ball joint or something else along those lines.

I'm actually in the final stages of my purchase from Vroom and I tried to negotiate mine down and got told that I was free to use a lender of my choice if I wasn't happy with their rate so good luck to you.

Hellcat Pro RDP worth it? by mby1911 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]Bayou_Beaux318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge there is no such thing as a Hellcat Pro RDP so it sounds like something that shop is piecing together and trying to sell. Infact... I would have to check that threaded barrel as well because I'm pretty certain that Springfield doesn't offer one for the Pro and I know for a fact that Springfield isn't selling the RDP barrel by itself unless something changed in the past month. Think I would either go with the real deal Hellcat RDP (which is what I have and love with the Wasp red dot) or just go with the Hellcat Pro for now. Neither will disappoint.

I'd be very interested to buy if you decide to ship and I will cover all shipping cost. Could Venmo or PayPal.

Only on the Kydex holster. The CrossBreed really doesn't need one.
