I was riding a chair lift in Milwaukee once and looked up at the cable about to run off the roller on one of the towers. As soon as I got off I told the attendant. Just. few minutes later they stopped the lift and had maintenance making the repair. So yes, some of us like watching mechanical stuff.
When I worked on Boone and Scenic Valley, our passenger cars were old enough as to where they also had quite a bit of slack in their couplers as well. Definitely gave me more than a bunch of experience, both doing that and the freight runs for what I'll soon be doing on either NS or BNSF, whichever sends me their conditional offer first.
I thought we were gonna see these couplers extend when train begins movn and insert themselves back into the draw box once momentum takes off when cars slow down, this video is no good, DO OVER.

Goes to Disney where usually people look at the attractions
This guy: Spends his time looking at train car couplings. XD
I'm special that way!
Mouse crew was watching me extra close. I just smiled.
@@MatthewHanson93 there’s nothing wrong with buffing trains in disney! 😁
The best way to spend your time at Disney :)
@@The747Isnotdead , yes, yes and yeeeeah!

They're supposed to have slack. That's how they're designed
I'm also a "geek" like that. I go to amusement parks or anyplace to watch how things work.
Lions, tigers and couplers Oh My
Looks like it's working properly. As long as it doesn't come unlocked.
I took the tour a few years back. Was surprised to learn the loco has no brakes, only the tender and passenger cars.
Very satisfying, watched it twice.
Those amusement park train rides are never long enough.
I loved the animal kingdom when I went. Also everyone is touring animals and youre watching the couple. That s something I'd do.
Normally you don’t grease the coupler knuckle. It’s just to keep it from making noise I bet.
There is soo much to look at but my adhd says otherwise.
Love it!
Para alguien más este video es hipnótico? No importan las atracciones de Disney, esta es la mejor!
That's pretty sloppy alright. But in a short-run case like this probably doesn't matter. Maybe only couple of cars anyway.
they're supposed to be sloppy
If if does come unhooked, it's just another ride
Why in the hell did I watch this?
Same reason as me. Came up on the suggested video feed
i spend my time watching the steam engine
All that money invested in a trip to look at a tour trolley's coupler.
HMMM
Zip ties to keep the pins in... you wat now mate?
Working at Disney has to be one of the worst jobs ever.

That girl has a terrible voice for that job. Really twangy high pitched.
