The poor biohazard coming in still is the best part. Off day, management didn't even give them an idea of how bad the problem was, only to find out its a locomotive nose full of vile.
Mark: “So where did the poop go?” Laborer: “That’s why I think it needs to come into the shop.” What I would have said then if I was Mark: “Well this day just got interesting.”
I'm sure this locomotive never escaped this legend. There are a few famous locomotives out there: CSX 8888: Crazy 8s (drove 66 miles as a runaway) BNSF 1676: Poopomotive
As a conductor trainee, my conductor who was training me told me not to put my grip down in the nose where I usually store it to keep it out of the way, as he told me used to do the same thing, until one time the toilet overflowed and poured under the door and soaked the floor, and subsequently his bag which was right across from the door, in blue chemical poop juice. He spent his entire time at the hotel washing his bag in the bathtub with no success, He ended up going to Walmart and bought a duffel bag and thew his ruined one into the hotel dumpster.
Poop and transport: I work for an airline. One of our jumbos came off service and went to the hangars for maintenance. Normal procedure was that the waste tank was supposed to be emptied after flight, on this day it didn’t happen. As the aircraft was so large, its tail would not fit into the hangar so sat outside in the sun for 3 days, until a loud bang was heard. The heat from the sun had fermented the contents of the waste tank to the point where 12 hours of human waste from 400 people exploded. They made the apprentices clean out the aircraft’s belly and fuselage. To avoid corrosion this had to be done to a very high standard. Even upstairs in the passenger cabin, the aircraft had a unique aroma for months afterwards.
4:56 this line lives rent free in my head now XD I remember one of my coworkers shared this video after an excursion we crewed, couldn't stop laughing. That poor Mustang guy half asleep only to find out it's more than just a "clogged toilet"
I got curious and googled BNSF 1676 to see if this story was floating around from other POV's or something. I ran across a Reddit reply to a reference to 1676 that said, "oh god don't remind me of that accursed unit." Now I want to know the rest of that unit's history. Lol
One dept i worked in back late 70s was sheet metal basically all the sheet metal on the Dash -7. One panel I recall forming was the stainless steel toilet floor. The walk to the closest restroom was long trek around a stacker storage unit to get to use. One coworker figured it was easier to pee under the hydraulic tank in back of his press brake and throw down some oil dry because the tank dripped anyway. Well, a female coworker kept complaining on the urine smell and the sight- everyone knew he did this. He got written up so many times and eventually fired. Recently he passed away I read. His obit mentioned another shop he went to work for, I hope he learned better restroom etiquette😢😮😅
Being up here in Canada I remember a time I used the term 'Shit Ton' and an American we were working with looked straight at me, as serious as can be and asked, "American or Metric?" When I began laughing he had no idea why. I really like that and use it to catch people off guard or to lighten the mood now and then.
I can only imagine how bad the smell was. As the low seniority guy I used to dump amfleets in Boston. They have a deodorizer in the tank so it wouldn't smell to bad, but every once in a while there would be a private car on the back and because its not in regular use like the regular revenue cars, it would rarely get rinsed. They also didn't have the deodorizer, so it was just a stew of piss, poo, vomit and whatever passengers put down the toilet. Months and months of raw sewage baking in the summer heat. The smell was _horrible._ The entire shop would smell bad for 30 minutes or so.
one time in charleston SC they had a lav truck come and service one of the amfleets on train 90. Conductor hands dude something he puts it on the car and proceeds to pump the train 2 minutes in the hose comes apart spewing 40 foot of "mud" all over the platform the conductor projectile vomits against the window of a coach class passengers were yelling and running you could hear yelling in the car the poor crew dude yaked on it was mass hysteria
@@Newberntrains Wow, I’ve had holes in the hose before and have had to play Twister to avoid the streams, but having the whole thing come apart?That sounds wild.
What I always find facinating is, that even the most senior and serious railway engineers will at some point have a laugh at the time, they had to deal with the poop train.
Ha! Perfect Hyce! I remember when I first realized the nose of the GP-7 I was riding in was the bog. Gordy Lang the engineer snickered, as if to see my look of horror and think "I made that same face when I found out thats the bog."
If the GP7 you rode in actually did have a toilet in the nose, and your engineer friend wasn't just BS-ing you, then it was put in (more like squeezed in, as there isn't much room!) some time after the unit was built, as they had no toilets originally. I've just recently visited the Illinois Railroad Museum and got a cab tour of CNW 1518--the very first GP7 ever built, former EMD Demonstrator 100--which was extensively rebuilt and restored. The cab is now so clean you could eat off the floor, but I digress. I asked the young volunteer (in his 20s, so, 'young' to me) who helped work on it (and also drove it) if it had a toilet in the nose, as I knew many later locomotives did. He said that 1518 did not, and none of them did during that era. He then opened the door to the nose (on the right side behind the controls, as the left half was taken up by the steam generator). There was nothing in there except an empty crawl space which allowed electrical access, which was also being used for some storage. It was cluttered, but not terribly dirty since the entire locomotive had been gone through and restored. The only parts of 1518 which hadn't been completely restored were the steam generator, which only received a cosmetic restoration and not a mechanical one; and the diesel engine itself, which received a mechanical restoration but not a complete cosmetic one (it was cleaned up, but not repainted).
@@KaiserFrazer67 The locomotive in question is MEC GP7 #573 which is at the Conway Scenic Railroad in New Hampshire. Now named after my friend, the engineer who's since passed...
Had this very thing happen in a big GE. I was a engineer trainee. The front of the tank rotted out and it flooded the hallway. Took out the engineer’s bags because he put them there to make room in the cab.
Mark: “So where did the poop go?” Me as Laborer: “That’s what I would like to know and to be honest IDK and I don't think poop should deny one of newton's laws of equivalent exchange.” 🤣
Yeah , this guy I know used to rent an apartment( this is out in back water town in upper MI.) he rented it just to house his pet alligator and yellow python, well the apartment had a squirrel infestation, and the python had smorgasbord. Well one squirrel ran down the inside of the bowl it was dry from lack of use, so the snake followed and died from sewer gas and blocked the line farther down and clogged the entire system. Welp the other tenants notified the landlord he intern called the plumber. Try as he might nothing he did unclogged the drain, now mind you this was an old ,old septic system including the tank and virtually plugged drain field. Well he was an enterprising young fellow, he brought back THE TRUCK, it had a big tank and a pump for sucking out debris and a compressor to jet air into the line to break up clogs, now hold on I'm getting there. This ingenious young lad fed the 8 foot long hose down the toilet inflated a collar that sealed the gap around the hose, oh boy. He proceeded to empty the compressed air tank(300 gal.) into the toilet, all at once with a mighty roar the other tenants apartment became an above ground pool complete with a dead squirrel ,11 foot yellow, well kinda python and 500 gallons of poop and toilet paper and the most horrendous stench . Thank god for service master, it took a few weeks to abate but it got cleaned up ,then the building was condemned( old house) , the snake owner was sued he had to sell his pet shop , the young plumber was dismissed. And all was well once again. Dam that must have been a sight ,a crap volcano, LOLOL. now you know.
Slight ommission that the driver of the pump truck was a very attractive young woman who by all accounts took the whole event in stride. Glad this story finally got its own video. It's one of my favorite Hyce Tales. Hopefully it won't be the last. Maybe next time could be the time 491 tried to kill you with a stay bolt.
I am here also to remind Mark, that he said earlier there was very nice girl in the crew of "Biohazard Company Heavy Calvary" Vehicle (very important part in my opinion, she need more credit for answering this "emergency call" 😆) . And: maintenace stories are the best one in every industry and every branch of that industries = we need more of them for sure!
For the sake of those poor biohazard guys I hope it was a big check. As much a literal shit ton would suck, being biohazard they're probably often dealing with deceased animals and occasionally humans. So so while it may have been a shitty day at work, it probably wasn't a scarring one.
As a wastewater operator, i tip my hat to those guys. That said, this situation would absolutely be top highlight reel story material for me and probably be the best worst day ever.
Hey Hyce I really enjoyed this story mostly cause this hits close to home. I’m currently a Laborer for BNSF. Best part of the job is when I get to operate the locomotives around the service tracks to build outbound consists. The worst part of the job is dumping/cleaning toilets and I’ve had my fair share of toilet stories💩 I appreciate you sharing one of your mechanical department stories I hope to hear more in the future!
It's a great story...LOLOL. I have heard it a few times, and that Locomotive number1676 has also stuck in my head because of this story...XD We absolutely need an locomotive defect level video too
That’s the craziest railroad story I’ve ever heard, I wouldn’t mind betting that the locomotive would have been taken out of service after that incident for routine maintenance and cleaning for several days before being put back in service.
You sir, have a way with words. “A lake of piss with scenic poo vistas”... I lost it at that point and never laughed so hard. It was like something from some twisted travel brochure... "Welcome to Excrement Shores... A lake of piss with scenic poo vistas" 😆
Reminds me of the stories i have heard from submariners about blowing sanitary waste tanks while at sea. Every waste valve had to be closed tight and tagged . Toilets had to be red tagged. There was an unfortunate sailor who absolutely had to go and he ignored the warning. He opened up the cut off valve and proceed to take a quick duce. While seated the head, the blow officer dumped the air valve.
I use to be a conductor & engineer up in Canada for CN. I could totally see this happening on a yard engine, especially in the winter. If the heaters were B/O or were crappy then it would all just freeze. You wouldn’t know until thawing season came around.
Hey Hyce! The story about the toilet gets me every time! I've always wondered how the engineer would go to the restroom on the road. Hopefully you can talk about it in the next video? Keep up the great work!
As someone who has worked in the biohazard industry for a short time in this case I don't care what sort of santanic rituals would be needed but we are going to make the pump truck work.
I had to clean up my own shitstorm once when I worked at Burgerville, but I have never... EVER heard of the front end of an engine being stuffed full of crap... My jaw dropped when you mentioned the weight. Literally the same weight as my car, lol!!!!
Mark every time you tell this story I laugh hysterically! I don’t even want to imagine how awful that was (especially for the poor guys who had to clean it out). But as with all your videos, I learned something; what a shit ton is! 😂😂 Please share more fun stories about your BNSF years. As always thanks and cheers!
here i n galesburg illinois our bnsf shop has a ex santa fe b40-8w with a poop problem. somehow it made its way to some part of the engine and resulted in a complete engine overhaul
Hey Hyce thank you for sharing us your story about working for the BNSF railway for me I’m gonna work for Union Pacific to be a train conductor and a engineer
I used to work for CSX as a locomotive electrician. There was one time I was working at the fuel plant and I was working though a pit. I opened the door of one of our GE's and their was soooo much vomit. All over the walls, floor, control stand. I'll never forgot the smell. It was definitely a hard slap in the face
I'm laughing my ass off about the guts coming out and dry heaving! Reminds me of working on a farm loading a couple of dead animals up into a truck in 95° weather! The smell was terrible and me and my coworker were laughing at each other while we were dry heaving! Luckily we got them loaded up but I'll never forget that incident!
OH? More than one poop story? Does this mean we are full of "it"? You have so many good stories and videos. I love the pizza in the engine. // I am sure glad you do not have a photo.
Ya know I've heard of shitty days at work but this is one of those stories that takes the cake. I can only imagine what words were spoken in those 5 hours of hell, and on the one guys day off no less. Like for some people that would be it for them so kudos to those guys for doing a job most of us could never stomach.
Should have hired some sailors. They have experience swabbing poop decks. Great tale. Loved the verbal graphics. Half the joy of a story is in the telling thereof.
Man, I almost blew chunks just listening to this! And that dude that came in on his day off, still asleep? I'll bet he woke up in a real hurry when he saw that! "Uh, Houston? We have a problem." I'm subscribing to your channel just based on this story alone. Thank goodness you had no pictures to share. I think we're all grateful for that... and that Smell-a-Vision isn't a thing either.
It seems like they should have subcontracted that one. Some septic services have extra hose and booster pumps (diaphragm? macerator? trash pump?) for access problems like this.
I Absolut, positively love the fact that someone is running on 1676 right now, and they don't know this story. But every time they go into the nose they'll see the marks on the floor... they'll stumble upon this video and just go "SON OF A... WHY DID THIS.. THIS THING STINKS"
This is a clear explanation why the firefighters who worked with my dad referred to the city vac trucks as “turd herders”. (They disliked the moniker btw lol)
Oh my xD I wouldn't wanted to be theses two "Aftermath" cleaners. Ahah. On the other hand, i would enjoy other railroad stories, maintenance explanation, ect. Cheers from France !
Railroad company: so uh where did our engine go ? Yard manager: well you see it had a plumbing issue so I order it to be scrapped because no one wanted to fix it
I'm new to the channel. I would love to hear more of these weird and disturbing stories you have. I have a morbid curiosity. And I have seen people lose limbs and get State by a tree. That's when a tree falls on you and there's pretty much nothing left. I used to work in the woods as a logger. I've seen eight inch branches go through two inches of steel
ROFLMAO!!!! I grew up using this term, but man, I will NEVER forget this actual war story involving a literal shit ton! This is gonna be permanently planted in my brain right along with the farting scene from "Blazing Saddles", which I saw as a kid in a drive-in theater! And yes, I am a newbie to the channel and this is the first time I heard this.
Great story! I can tell you mine is worse!! I worked for a company who specializes in sewer bypasses. Set a pump in a manhole and with the use of portable pipeline send it around the section of sewer that needs to be repaired. We had this job downstream from the Sappi paper mill in Cloquet, Minnesota. I'm not sure how big the sewer line was but there were six massive 21,000 gallon a minute pumps in a pit to move the bypass. The smell from that pit was sooo bad you could TASTE IT!!!
My cousin is Pat Feller 😂😂😂 I’m sitting next to him watching this video and he’s giving the details as you explain 😂😂😂😂😂 he said he forgot some of this
I drive a roll-off truck. One of my weekly hauls is a 15 yard dumpster for a water processing facility. A small one for a single development. The dumpster has the solids left over and they run it through a press to get the water out of it. It is usually about 5 tons when I dump it. I have hauled 30 yard containers that are full of construction debris that weighed less.
I used to work at Interbay but out of Building-1 where Telecom, Signal, an electrician, water service and the section all shared that building at once but that was over 10 years ago.
You should make a proper "Stories" series for stuff like this. The stories are some of the most fun parts of the RO videos with Kan, so I'd love a series of wacky stories and what not in their own, proper videos like this one.

Some say they find God when they are doing their work and something difficult happens. In this case, the workers found Satan.

Although 8888 has been rebuilt and remembered, hopefully it will be preserved later.
'Minor poop story' is one of the most unsettling phrases I've ever heard.

You sir, have a way with words. “A lake of piss with scenic poo vistas”... I lost it at that point and never laughed so hard. It was like something from some twisted travel brochure... "Welcome to Excrement Shores... A lake of piss with scenic poo vistas" 😆
Sounds like what hell itself might look like... 😱😈
Reminds me of the stories i have heard from submariners about blowing sanitary waste tanks while at sea. Every waste valve had to be closed tight and tagged . Toilets had to be red tagged. There was an unfortunate sailor who absolutely had to go and he ignored the warning. He opened up the cut off valve and proceed to take a quick duce. While seated the head, the blow officer dumped the air valve.
What happened next?
Hyce describing trains: “Good little choo choo”
Hyce describing a literal pool of crap: “ *Scenic Poo Vistas©* “
"You smell sumn'?" "you mean the 5th traction motor on fire?" "shuuuuuure... lets go with that"
"I wish I would have taken a picture."
Hyce, it is probably for the best that never happened.
I use to be a conductor & engineer up in Canada for CN. I could totally see this happening on a yard engine, especially in the winter. If the heaters were B/O or were crappy then it would all just freeze. You wouldn’t know until thawing season came around.
Hey Hyce! The story about the toilet gets me every time! I've always wondered how the engineer would go to the restroom on the road. Hopefully you can talk about it in the next video? Keep up the great work!
As someone who has worked in the biohazard industry for a short time in this case I don't care what sort of santanic rituals would be needed but we are going to make the pump truck work.
I had to clean up my own shitstorm once when I worked at Burgerville, but I have never... EVER heard of the front end of an engine being stuffed full of crap... My jaw dropped when you mentioned the weight. Literally the same weight as my car, lol!!!!
Hey at least the people working had respirators and other PPE to help with the smell. Poor 1676 had all that stuff IN ITS NOSE!!!
This needs to be part of a movie, XDXDXD and I can already think of what the title is going to be "Trains; The Pooped Out DISASTER Story Ever!!"
Thanks Hyce for the full story, it truly deserves its own video
Mark every time you tell this story I laugh hysterically! I don’t even want to imagine how awful that was (especially for the poor guys who had to clean it out). But as with all your videos, I learned something; what a shit ton is! 😂😂 Please share more fun stories about your BNSF years. As always thanks and cheers!
here i n galesburg illinois our bnsf shop has a ex santa fe b40-8w with a poop problem. somehow it made its way to some part of the engine and resulted in a complete engine overhaul
Hey Hyce thank you for sharing us your story about working for the BNSF railway for me I’m gonna work for Union Pacific to be a train conductor and a engineer
The hose not being able to be used is just that final insult.
No matter where someone works, there will always be an odd/strange day on the job. Hillarious story! I'd love to hear more. Thanks for sharing!
I used to work for CSX as a locomotive electrician. There was one time I was working at the fuel plant and I was working though a pit. I opened the door of one of our GE's and their was soooo much vomit. All over the walls, floor, control stand. I'll never forgot the smell. It was definitely a hard slap in the face
I'm laughing my ass off about the guts coming out and dry heaving!
Reminds me of working on a farm loading a couple of dead animals up into a truck in 95° weather!
The smell was terrible and me and my coworker were laughing at each other while we were dry heaving!
Luckily we got them loaded up but I'll never forget that incident!
I'm guessing that explaining this to the higher-ups, why the refuel took so long was a "shit ton" of fun. :)
OH? More than one poop story? Does this mean we are full of "it"? You have so many good stories and videos. I love the pizza in the engine. // I am sure glad you do not have a photo.
Ya know I've heard of shitty days at work but this is one of those stories that takes the cake. I can only imagine what words were spoken in those 5 hours of hell, and on the one guys day off no less. Like for some people that would be it for them so kudos to those guys for doing a job most of us could never stomach.
Back in my day, we worked so hard we didn't ever need to shit. Just held our shit in all shift.
I feel as if you should make videos monthly or every other month of your stories fron working on BNSF. Great content as always!!
This is probably the first story I heard when I started watching this channel, great to know it has it's own video now.
Should have hired some sailors. They have experience swabbing poop decks. Great tale. Loved the verbal graphics. Half the joy of a story is in the telling thereof.
Man, I almost blew chunks just listening to this! And that dude that came in on his day off, still asleep? I'll bet he woke up in a real hurry when he saw that! "Uh, Houston? We have a problem."
I'm subscribing to your channel just based on this story alone. Thank goodness you had no pictures to share. I think we're all grateful for that... and that Smell-a-Vision isn't a thing either.
It seems like they should have subcontracted that one. Some septic services have extra hose and booster pumps (diaphragm? macerator? trash pump?) for access problems like this.
this brings “your full of shit” to another level
I Absolut, positively love the fact that someone is running on 1676 right now, and they don't know this story. But every time they go into the nose they'll see the marks on the floor... they'll stumble upon this video and just go "SON OF A... WHY DID THIS.. THIS THING STINKS"
This is a clear explanation why the firefighters who worked with my dad referred to the city vac trucks as “turd herders”. (They disliked the moniker btw lol)
Yep, that's exactly the kind of moniker firefighters would come up with.
Oh my xD
I wouldn't wanted to be theses two "Aftermath" cleaners. Ahah.
On the other hand, i would enjoy other railroad stories, maintenance explanation, ect.
Cheers from France !
Bruh this was enjoyable in an absolutely hilarious way. We need more of these stories
Railroad company: so uh where did our engine go ?
Yard manager: well you see it had a plumbing issue so I order it to be scrapped because no one wanted to fix it
Thank you for making this a dedicated video.
I fr read that as defected video
I'm new to the channel. I would love to hear more of these weird and disturbing stories you have. I have a morbid curiosity. And I have seen people lose limbs and get State by a tree. That's when a tree falls on you and there's pretty much nothing left. I used to work in the woods as a logger. I've seen eight inch branches go through two inches of steel
ROFLMAO!!!! I grew up using this term, but man, I will NEVER forget this actual war story involving a literal shit ton! This is gonna be permanently planted in my brain right along with the farting scene from "Blazing Saddles", which I saw as a kid in a drive-in theater! And yes, I am a newbie to the channel and this is the first time I heard this.
This sounds like an absolute nightmare for everyone involved, but especially the crews who had to deal with it.
That was utterly hilarious.Honestly, I was wiping tears away, and now I have to share this around work hahaha! Thanks for this!
Definitely need more stories, this was great
Welp, now I can visualize "a shit ton"... Thank you?
Great story! I can tell you mine is worse!! I worked for a company who specializes in sewer bypasses. Set a pump in a manhole and with the use of portable pipeline send it around the section of sewer that needs to be repaired. We had this job downstream from the Sappi paper mill in Cloquet, Minnesota. I'm not sure how big the sewer line was but there were six massive 21,000 gallon a minute pumps in a pit to move the bypass. The smell from that pit was sooo bad you could TASTE IT!!!
My cousin is Pat Feller 😂😂😂 I’m sitting next to him watching this video and he’s giving the details as you explain 😂😂😂😂😂 he said he forgot some of this
And for reference that much waste is about 130 gallons
I drive a roll-off truck. One of my weekly hauls is a 15 yard dumpster for a water processing facility. A small one for a single development. The dumpster has the solids left over and they run it through a press to get the water out of it. It is usually about 5 tons when I dump it. I have hauled 30 yard containers that are full of construction debris that weighed less.
I used to work at Interbay but out of Building-1 where Telecom, Signal, an electrician, water service and the section all shared that building at once but that was over 10 years ago.
I'll never look at the nose of those trains in the same way, ever again, lol. (you tell a great story too) I love your smile!
"So where did the poop go?"
"Yes."
HILARIOUS!!!
I'LL THINK OF THAT FROM NOW ON WHEN IM NEAR THE "LAV" ON OUR AIRCRAFT!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Needs to be a chapter in “Little Engines, Big Mess”
I've been on youtube for a long time, and many sides... I have never laughed so hard in my life on here. Thank you for your service. 🤣
"So where did the poop go?" ← This had me laughing uncontrollably for the first time in years for some reason.
Cool Man! This sounds _loads_ more interesting than anything Simon Whistler has for me...
"A lake of piss, with scenic poo vistas and mountains "
You wordsmith you!
Can I use that?
I haven't laughed that hard in quite a while!! "A literal 'shit ton'". LOLOLOL
I’d love to also hear the “uncouthed Jabronie” story in full detail
l love your railroad story’s so would love some more!
You should make a proper "Stories" series for stuff like this. The stories are some of the most fun parts of the RO videos with Kan, so I'd love a series of wacky stories and what not in their own, proper videos like this one.
"Scenic pooh vista's and mountains"... 🤣🤣🤣
