‘Bando News and Messy Views
Surely you’ve heard all about this ‘house from hell‘ that is selling for $600k. It’s honestly not in that bad of shape compared to some of the completely destroyed buildings I saw for sale in Brooklyn last year, at roughly the same price.

Only in Philly could some dude shoot a guy on the subway and then get killed by trains when he attempted to escape. The Tunnel Gods frown upon those who disturb their aura.

Some dumb kids with a cheap dollar can fucked up the paint on a E8 locomotive at a Kentucky museum. Only 1,314 of these icon locomotives were ever built—which is actually a fairly high number for it’s era—and a fraction of that still exist today.

This guy bought a cheap abandoned school in an Italian mountain town and if you’re not jealous we can’t hang. LIFE GOALS.

If you have never heard of Egypt’s absolutely chaos railroads—trust me this is worth a read. The whole system is falling apart, and being run by workers more coked up than Guy Fieri at a strip club.

If you can get past the absolutely insane amount of pop up ads and trash spewing over this article, you might find some interesting facts about a long abandoned tunnel under Cardiff (UK). You’ll have to do a lot of digital digging to get to the content though. I feel like I’m lifting a god damned shovel breaking my fingers clicking all over the damn place trying to get to it while sitting on my deck hearing only birds chirp. I mean really what the fuck and why isn’t a stripper pouring me a whiskey right now for this mentally taxing job of clicking through trash to get to the content in an attempt to entertain y’all with absolute madness! Madness I tell you!

Ah hem.

Shady things still happen in bandos everywhere. An Indian man was apparently thrown out the window of some ‘bando in Abu Shagara after a brawl with some Nigerians inside, doing shady things.

New Tunnel Smell
Amtrak is moving forward with a major new tunnel project in Baltimore—replacing their ancient NE Corridor tunnel with a significantly more modern tube that will allow for faster train speeds.

Check out this new massive drain tunnel project in Pawtucket, RI. And this mystery set of tunnels in UGANDA. Now there is a country we rarely get to mention in this newsletter…

What a really good laugh? Elon Musk is going to try to get into the freight business. It doesn’t take Warren Buffett to tell you that there’s zero money in laying rail, tunnels, or building any transportation infrastructure. And here’s Mr. RichClown McTunnelPants over here smoking so much weed he can’t see past his own huge bloated fart-filled dirigible of an ego. Maybe he’s trying to woo Jeff Bezos and lure him into believing he can deliver all Jeff’s packages through a special magic pneumatic tube, powered by Elon’s notoriously disgusting farts? Maybe Jeff will snort said farts, and we’ll end up with an even bigger global warming problem due to their clouds of Smug?

‘Bando Building BBQ – Hobo Hell Edition.
Yoooooo: San Antonio’s bandos and homeless problem sounds pretty intense: “Upon inspection they found debris and clothing piled, but no one inside the structure, firefighters said. Authorities say finding homeless people there has been an issue, as typically there are 20 to 30 people who live there on a daily basis.“. That’s a lotta people living in one ‘bando car dealership. May this be the future for Tesla dealerships.

Meanwhile, a bando in Kalamazoooooo burned up, likely also caused by homeless persons.

And that’s a wrap…
Freedumb isn’t free, nor is a vehicle with enough hauling capacity to load out a bando psych ward full of patient files and assorted loot. If Bezos can go to the moon tax free, you can tax whatever bando or corporation you want, right back in their face. Just take shit. America baby!

Comments

NOTE: It sometimes takes a short while for comments to be approved - unfortunately there's a lot of spam comments that come in. I absolutely love when y'all share personal stories of friends relatives etc who worked in these places. It really helps capture what these places were like before they closed up shop.

If you're feeling salty, argumentative comments completely devoid of facts (supply links to support your argument) will not be published. Got a case to state? come with the details.
