If we were Mice

I think if we were Mice, most of the people in this forum would be dead.

Death by "Chocolate Mouse Trap"

I always assumed it was alcohol that was the primary trapping agent of many members here.

It's the only difference between "Mice and Men" or most mammals. But, who know if they really......

Wait just found this, maybe the best mouse trap is.......

Edit: You might be onto something?

What trains and what fuel, tcmtech? Diesel oil?

what about Virus?

Is not every Virus that kills but only disorganised some vital parts of the body, abi?

BNSF locomotives. Mostly oil tanker trains hauling around 3 million gallons each.

Winter blend #2 locomotive diesel. Its basically what would be considered a high sulfur #3 if the #3 diesel rating was still in existence.

-8 F right now with -24 F wind chill plus my truck just broke down, burst hydraulic line, and I am going home early because of it!

Hi,


I used to have a mouse problem here so i built a clear plastic box trap with electric trigger mechanism complete with solenoid to shut the door and trap the rodent.

What i found was that the most effective bait was not cheese but was peanuts. They love peanuts. I did not try chocolate, but i didnt have to because with the peanuts even if they managed to escape the first try they'd be back in an hour to attack the bait again and get trapped again. If they came back in a hour i would think that the peanut was too good of an attractor that they just could not resist.

I don't like night shift. I went to sleep after that post.

I didn't know you worked for the Railroad. Good Money and Benefits.

LOL. I am guilty of said trapping agent.

Had to fix my post.

Been here over a year now, senior person in the fueling dept too, however I am getting burned out on doing the two days and three nights 60 hour work weeks and looking to switch jobs. I have applied for a conductors position and for the Facilities Electrician position. Hoping to find out on either in the next moth or so.

Both pay even more and have less actual workload per week associated with them.

No mouse traps involved with either though.

:WINK: Apart from the mouse traps. Based on the conversations and knowledge I have accumulated from your posts, you will have no trouble, fitting either of the posts.

Mouse and trap was used in this post.

Good luck, tcm.
