Hi
Just introducing myself I'm a mechanic by trade and i turned to mining for some extra cash . i was just thinking of older days when i used to work on cars and i thought i would try a forum and thought Subaru was a good place to start since i spent 13 years dedicated to Subaru i used to know the ins and outs of all the models but I've been out of it for 4 years and it would be good to get the brain back in gear sorting out some problems again .
If you want to pick my brains on any thing feel welcome

I worked as a fitter on Alco, EMD/GM and English Electric prime movers and locomotives for just over 5 years here in Adelaide. I now drive trains to Perth, Melbourne and Broken Hill from being based in Adelaide. I have been doing that for just over 4 years now.

Cheers,

You can have the relay working , I prefer sleeping in a bed that doesn't move or get run ins and run outs .
We run all four mains out of Sydney so get about as much variety in terrain and loco hauled trains as is possible here .

Cheers .
