| TJ and I went straight into Batesville where we decided to park shop at the Hill-Rom. Hill-Rom is one of the leading manufacturers of hospital beds and other medical technology in the United States. The train passes underneath an air duct here and I thought that would make for a nice prop. We waited and waited and waited and waited and the train never showed up. After getting fed up of waiting we drove to the other side of town. Sure enough, the train was parked at the Mulberry St. crossing. The train had once again been thrown into emergency. We heard over the radio this time from the conductor that it was the rear car that was the issue and apparently the train was experiencing bad air slip. They sat for almost two hours in this spot before continuing on. |
