The busted frog. |

You can see how cracked up it is. There were pieces that fell off also. I did not get them in the picture. To much high impact, heavy tonnage! |

Replacing bad rail |

The bad rail is on top of the truck. The yellow spot on the rail is the bad rail with internal cracks. Q595 is coming up fast. I'll bet these guys love it when a Sperry Rail truck is on the line! |
