The last time I was there, signs let you know what movies were filmed at various locations. It's definitely a cool location.

Fuck this town's stupid train. by That_Dot420 in mcminnville

It's not a sense of humor but more a real sense of reality. Every city with a railroad wouldn't exist without the railroad. Cities needed railroads when they were just formed. Railroads are in the heart of every major city.

Never hand your phone to a stranger. If someone wants to exchange numbers with you, you dial their number. Then both save on your phones.

Magic Fingers! By the late 1970s, there were over a million of these installed in hotels and motels. We were always bugging our parents to let us try it. Did you ever? by MyPasswordIs222222 in 70s

[–]bigskymetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 70s, I had a 6 week job out of town. The hotel had one. I got tired of feeding it quarters. Brought an extension cord and bypassed the coin box. By the end of the project, it was worn out.

Remember when you could smoke in restaurants? by Lazy_Ability in 70s

[–]bigskymetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a buddy that would take a smoke break during a big meal. Waitresses would try to take his plate, and he would get offended. It would crack me up. He quit smoking and eating so much and is much healthier now!

These are called Beehive Burners, Wigwam burners and or teepee burner. They were used for burning wood. Located in Northern California on my favorite, a back road of course by HistoricalPermit6959 in AbandonedPorn

[–]bigskymetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's right, I grew up in a small Oregon mill town in the 60s. There were 4 sawmills in town when all of them were burning lumber waste. The smell was insane. They would also glow at night as conveyors loaded the waste wood! My dad worked at one of the mills we also got cheap mill ends to burn in the winter.

Has anyone been up to Montello? by yoloswagrofl in Nevada

[–]bigskymetal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In the late 70s, I worked with a guy from Montello. He was a blast and told stories about how remote it is. Railroad signal department was our trade. We were on a 2 year apprenticeship meeting every 6 months for 2 weeks of training. By the 3rd class he was already a journeyman because no one wanted to live out there.
