Default In need of some prayers folks.

Earlier today a fellow railroader was fatally wounded. I do not know the person and they are from another railroad. The accident happened this morning in the BNSF Argentine yard in Kansas City, Kansas. The facts of the accident haven't been released but the person does the same thing i do. My job is very unforgiving I work with dangerous machinery. Anyways keep the family and friends in your prayers. It always makes you remember things do happen when you least expect them. Taking the shortcut isn't always the best thing to do in any job. I need to make sure I am always aware of my surroundings at all times. Like i said I don't know the person but it brings tears to my eyes. They are a fellow railroader brother and a UTU brother. Take care you all and always expect the unexpected. Im off to bed right now, because I will be working tonight.
