Steam Engine Train Smoker
This video, by Janet Califf, is of an amazing handcrafted steam engine train smoker built by “Illinois Slim”. “Illinois Slim” has been working on the project for three years and built it mostly from scratch. The smoker has a wood-stoked fire that generates steam, along with a working whistle, a bell and much more!
The engineer reveals that he named the train smoker “97″ after the country song “Wreck Of The Old 97” famously sung by Johnny Cash.
For three years, retired iron worker Steve has been working on a homemade steam BBQ smoker that looks like a steam train engine. The miniature train has a boiler and firebox to make the most delicious and tender BBQ chicken. But the best part is releasing steam from the cylinders, ringing the bell, and blowing the steam whistle. All aboard the train to delicious-ville.
Joke Of The Day: One Ticket
 |
Three engineers and three scientists were traveling by train to a conference.
The scientists went to the ticket window and bought three one-way tickets. The engineers bought only one. The scientists remarked that there were three engineers but only one ticket. The engineers said to watch. Right before the train left the three engineers crammed into one rest room. When the conductor came through to collect tickets he checked the rest room and, seeing it occupied, said “Ticket please.” One of the engineers cracked open the door and handed out the ticket, which the conductor validated. After a few minutes the engineers returned to their seats. The scientists were amazed, and said they’d try it on the way back. On the way back after the conference, the engineers and scientists met at the ticket window again. The scientists said “we know what to do” and bought only one ticket. But the engineers didn’t buy any! Once again the scientists were perplexed. The engineers said “wait and see.” As the train left the station the scientists got up and crammed themselves into a rest room. The engineers did the same. After a few minutes, before the conductor appeared, one of the engineers came out of their wash room and knocked on the door where the scientists were and said “Ticket please!” |
