G'day people,

Just a quick post to introduce myself. I have been lurking around here for a couple of weeks and have really enjoyed reading all these posts, so much in fact that I decided to register.
I came here originally looking for some "defect" type photos for some issues that we were having at work and didn't really expect to be typing this right now...... [Linked Image]
I'm not quite up with all the localised "lingo" but I'm sure if I ask nicely some one will explain if needed.
And just so you know, I'm an Aussie ( don't all throw rocks at once... ) and currently live in the Northwest of Western Australia.
Did my time as an Electrical Fitter ( specialising in Rail Signals and Communications ), dual traded to Electrical Mechanic, left the rail industry to work as an REC ( registered electrical contractor ), did that for six years, left that to work in underground construction ( electricty, water and tunneling....great combination ).
I currently work in the mining rail systems up here doing what I started out doing...Signalling and Communications.
So yes full circle I gues. Hope that hasn't bored you all to much....)

Anyway just thought I would say hello before I started posting.

Q) What the hell is a "disco". A disconnect point?


ciao
