In all seriousness, what does "pantograph" mean?
The thing on top of some trains that touches the cables which it gets its power from, our something like that...

Ironically, it takes a lucky strike for Germany to win at the moment... :dopey:
Believe it or not. Picture was taken shortly before the Algerian match. And I know why I chose this background. :(


Also. I knew what a pantograph is before it was explained.
 
@Joey D - Minus the vest, but with the addition of my name tag, I had to don very similar attire to work on a laptop 2 weeks ago. The walls were literally being torn down around me. :lol:
 
We're talking about regular office machines, right? What's the safety gear for? I've been skydiving with less safety equipment!

Toner powder can give you CMYKAIDS if not handled by a highly visible expert. The hard hat is so that you don't bang your head on the underside of a desk when you get disturbed clocking a cheeky peek up Miss Perkins in Accounts skirt.
 
I used to work with toner cartridges without safety gear! That must explain my whole adult life's worth of mistakes! Finally, the answer I was looking for! Why, oh why, didn't I just wear that damn hi-vis vest! :(

With safty equipment like this you can also enter the matrix printer. (Ugh, that was bad. :lol:)
 
Haha nice. Are you a full qualified driver?

Oh hell no although I do know how to drive them. I work on them mostly performing modifications and engineering trial's.
The suburban fleet is currently being upgraded to a digital radio and another guy and myself are running around at night installing a final part in readiness for the final switch on.


I like trains lol and could tell.

Fair enough, thought you may have been in the graffiti scene in some way :lol:.
Most of those guys whether they are the actual painters of just fans of it would already know what the cabs look like along with having their own keys.

It was an active construction site, the first floor was still heavily being built but floor 2 and 3 were mostly done. It's strange doing IT work when part of the building just has steel beams in the wall.
