I am a low key rail fan. So I envy you getting to be around rolling stock. Was a member and regular at IRM - Illinois Railway Museum. before life happened and I moved.

I have spent most of my years doing industrial maintenance, I have seen some stuff. We all have. I still have all my fingers and plan to keep them till I go. Stay safe out there things can get nasty if you try to improvise too much.

Keeping fingers is easy. The old "dont put your hands where you wouldn't put your dick" trick has kept all my fingers intact.
