Back in 1964 I worked for Westinghouse installing transformers in Charlesburg Quebec. We had a new unit shipped by rail from Hamilton and I got sucked into helping to move the transformer from the rail car to a lowboy. It was very top heavy and very unstable, so much so that the truck driver refused to drive and walked off the job. As I was the only Westinghouse rep, I got sucked into driving the truck through the city to the job site. At 22 years old, I was still fearless. Anyhow to get from the load yard to the street meant driving over about a 6" curb at a 45 deg angle. I really figured it was going going to roll. By the time I got to the job site, I was no longer quite so fearless!
