The loco got hit by a wagon and put a large hole in the diesel tank in the shunting yard.
There was nothing i could do to stop the leak.
So im standing there watching the diesel pouring into the ground and i'm thinking, "this is good, its soaking up real good into the ground...cool, i'll tell the boss in the morning"(its 11pm at night).
I get a ring in the morning to go and explain or else !!
What i didnt know.......there was a underground stream right under neath the spill and the diesel was running straight into it.... it fucked the stream and the wild life.....all 3,500l of it
It made the front of our paper that night
