Chapter 106: Diesel Locomotives

The three women leaned closer, listening intently to the movement.

I only heard Liu Shubao say: "Attention, I'm going to start!" Three...... Two...... One ......"

"Ah~" He pulled his throat and shouted, earth-shattering, his hand pulled at the same time, and the gun was loaded.

"How? Didn't hear the sound of loading? Liu Shubao said with a smile.

The three women were almost scared to death by him, they shivered in unison, and after being frightened, they immediately screamed "Wow Wow" and got up and beat Liu Shubao, "Liu Xuebao, you are a dead liar!" Dare to play tricks on my aunt! ”

"! If you don't hit you today, you will be counted clean! ”

An Jia suddenly turned her head and looked at Shi Qingshan with sharp eyes: "Good you stinky stone!" You didn't expose him, and you joined forces to play tricks on us, who gave you the guts? As he spoke, he jumped over and threw his fists and kicks.

……

In the early morning, the scenery of Xixi Mountain is fresh and refreshing, and the air contains a faint earthy fragrance, which is full of greenery. Seeing the wet ground and water droplets hanging on the flowers and plants, the crew realized that there was a light rain last night.

The Central Plains region has the largest railway transportation hub in the country. When he first arrived in Xixizhai Village, Anjia said that he was full of trains and gave Shi Qingshan inspiration. Prepare for Thor to drive south along the railway line so you can avoid clogged roads.

With this idea in his head, he repeatedly calculated the width of the rails and Thor's tracks on paper, but nothing worked.

The width of the railway tracks is only more than one meter and four, while the Thor chariot is three and a half meters wide, and the outer edge of the track is also more than three meters. Subtract the width of the two tracks of more than 50 centimeters each, and the width of the middle is two meters, and the tracks cannot be pressed on the rails at all, so they can only walk across the tracks. Not to mention that it is so slow, you can't walk at all when you reach the elevated section.

Railways, like highways, are mostly fully enclosed, either fenced on both sides, or elevated in mid-air, so as to avoid zombies and many unknown risks. Shi Qingshan thought about it again and again, but he still couldn't resist the temptation of a smooth journey, and decided to go to the railway station first after going down the mountain to see if he could find a way to take the railway.

They all rested at the Yanan's villa last night, and got up early the next day before dawn.

There were still many zombie corpses pressed under the gap in the collapsed wall. The villagers have the habit of getting up early to work while it is cool, and when a few people come to Thor's side after breakfast, the broken bricks and stones and corpses of the collapsed building at the entrance have been cleaned up, and even the zombies outside the wall are attracted to the distance by the young men who keep throwing firecrackers.

After Shi Qingshan shook hands with the three new leaders who saw him off, as well as Yang Dayong, and the villagers who had crowded over one by one, he climbed into the chariot and drove out of the gap in the wall with their warm invitation to come again, and went on a rampage all the way, driving for more than half an hour to Zhongyang Railway Station.

There is no starting train at Zhongyang Railway Station, and most of the passing cars do not stop, which is a small station. Entering through the back door of the station, you can see the railroad tracks entering and exiting the station, and the platform is littered with corpses, and the dried blood stains the floor tiles mottled black.

A high-speed train stopped quietly under the platform, and several railway employees and passengers who had turned into zombies wandered between the tracks, tripped over the tracks from time to time, and clumsily got up and tripped up.

Shi Qingshan looked at the dense high-voltage lines above from the periscope and sighed, now that the railways have long been transformed into electrification, it is estimated that diesel locomotives have long been eliminated.

Liu Shubao stared at a few rusty flatbed trucks in the barren grass by the wall in the distance and said, "Old Tie, if there is a flatbed, there will definitely be a tractor!" Let's look in the garage. ”

Shi Qingshan said: "Even if you find a tractor, it will be useless if there is no electricity!" Now the locomotives are all electric, so we can't just push them, right? ”

"Not necessarily!" Liu Shubao shook his head: "There will definitely be a diesel locomotive left at the railway station, otherwise if the high-speed rail loses power halfway, what will they drive to repair it?" ”

"Huh......?"

"Makes sense!" Shi Qingshan's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to look at a row of locomotive garages at the end of the right side of the railway station compound.

Those huge garages numbered 1 through 9, most of them had their doors open and were empty inside. If you want to go over to check those garages that are closed, you have to cross more than a dozen railroad tracks, if you drive the chariot over too much to hurt the tracks, Shi Qingshan is reluctant, and he doesn't dare to take that risk. In order to save trouble, it is difficult to move an inch if the track is broken, and the gains outweigh the losses.

He and Liu Shubao jumped out of the chariot with rifles on their backs, lit a cigarette each, and approached there on foot.

Although the garage has different doors, they are all connected inside, one of which has an automatic car wash installed inside, and the rest have tracks more than a meter above the ground, which are used to overhaul train bogies.

The two entered one of the garages and saw a green and gray tractor parked at the other end with two big red letters on it - "Harmony! ”

Shi Qingshan hurriedly folded his hands and shook them, muttering in his mouth: "Bless!" Bless! Bless it's a diesel locomotive. ”

Liu Shubao flicked the cigarette ash, squinted at him and said, "You just bless and bless, and you didn't say who to bless?" ”

"Whoever blesses you can do it! Whoever hears it will be blessed! Shi Qingshan couldn't wait to jump over a rotting corpse and trot away.

Liu Shubao panted and chased after him: "Hey...... Can't you see that this is a diesel locomotive? ”

Shi Qingshan didn't stop, turned around and asked, "How do you know?" ”

"This is an HXN7 with a double cab in the front and rear, and there is obviously no pantograph on the roof! Don't understand this? ”

Shi Qingshan said happily: "I didn't expect you to have research on the train, you will definitely drive it, right?" ”

Liu Shubao spit out the cigarette butt: "I haven't driven a real car, but I've played a simulated driving game, it shouldn't be difficult!" ”

Running under the train, Shi Qingshan circled, sniffed his nose and said, "Well, there is a smell of diesel, it is indeed a diesel locomotive!" ”

Liu Shubao leaned at the driver's cab door and looked in: "Can I still lie to you?" When I was in school, I had a roommate who was a train fan, and there were many train simulation driving games on the computer, and I drove this type of car. ”

"You come down first!" Shi Qingshan stepped on the ladder and climbed up, pulled the car door, closed it, took out the master key from his pocket to open the door, and walked into the cab.

I can't imagine that the wheelhouse of a train is similar to that of a ship, except that the rudder is missing. Five large screens occupy the entire ring bridge faΓ§ade, with multi-function buttons underneath, including tuning the radio, locomotive parameters, and several circular pressure pointer gauges.

There are several sets of levers on the console, which are marked with the brake, the woofer and the controller.

Shi Qingshan looked at the main platform and asked suspiciously, "Why is there no start switch?" ”

Liu Shubao followed in, walked to a row of control boards on the back wall and said, "Here!" ”

He had words in his mouth, pointed to the switches and looked for something, and suddenly said, "Found it, here!" ”

Shi Qingshan looked up and saw that he had pressed a switch.
