Two slag pots, no hydraulic shear

I'm new to learning of this reaction. From a typical weld like such, what are you using and how much of it is waste once the reaction is finished? Great idea for welding and very cool!

what does the yellow contraption do?

What is the point of that yellow pneumatic breaker thing at the two minute mark? If you're gonna hit the weld with the hammer anyway, what is the point of this particular extra tool?

How much are they getting paid?

Hard, dangerous work! That is a real job.

Just saw from indian railway track too. They took 15 mins

Same thing used at the WTC.

No safety glasses?

If there's anything I've learned from the welders in our shop, it's that anything can be fixed with a flap disk.

I thermit weld now for almost 4 years and i can tell those guys are experienced even tho you dont see how they prepared the rail for the actual welding process. Like cutting the necessary gap with a flame torch and setting the rails even with almost zero tolerance. Hats off to anyone who survived this job for more than 1 year. Even tho you see the "actual" work done its also the easiest thing about the day. But carrying this heavy equipment to where the rails have to be welded is the hardest part for us. Sometimes we push it on a wagon that fits on the rail tracks miles since u cant reach it with the working car & if you have a bad day you have to push it uphill. To this day its always a challenge, for all of us. Guys who looked like the rock quit after 1 week saying its too hard for them. This job exposes men that thought they are the toughest. Having and finding the will every single day is what keeps you welding rails no matter how tough you are. So if anyone looks for challenge i can recommend to go for it. The treat you will get is good money and back pain really fast x)

Seeing this after watching Indians do it with no gloves or safety clothing is crazy. They really have too many people for it to matter if they lose a few 💀😫

*smacks rails* "That's not going anywhere."

Damn, that’s so cool!

Tack Wolfgang för denna underbara rapport. Min fru och jag har tillbringat våra semestrar i Sverige i mer än 20 år. Min fru reste till och med hit med sina föräldrar för 45 år sedan. Men vi hade aldrig hört talas om Bergslagskanalen, det ska vi verkligen ta reda på! Vi har varit i närheten, i Skagern och Hjälmaren. Vi har ofta besökt de välkända kanalerna som Göta kanal och Dalslands kanal. Nu har vi ytterligare en intressant destination.........

I thought they would have needed jey fuel to melt that steel

Men like that are hard to come by. Pray we still have enough left in 10 years.

Great job fellas. Nicely done!

Mega bucks 🤘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Beating on red hot iron without safety glasses, not cool.

considering thermite reacts at 5000F if should sufficient to weld steel .

You can tell this isn't America. American railroads look like third-world infrastructure.

Came here after watching that American thermite welding video... this is more professional, but somehow also way more ghey

Trains and cars are the other way around to each other when it comes to repair work. The track on which the train moves is the one that gets damaged, and no damage to the wheels occurs. But the road on which the car moves experiences no damage, but damage can occur to the wheels, which is the tire. Both the tracks and the tire have their own way of repairing. 🚞 🚗

I see a lot of arthritis in their future.

Best thermite weld video on the “Tube.” Unlike some others, these guys know what they’re doing!

Tsja….. no dinge-dong sound anylonger. More difficult to steal the whole rail. That’s good.

i actually clicked BACK on my browser, just to ensure to give this a like

Love hearing the "pinging" of the steel as it contracts

There’s that white male privilege again.

Good job they finished before a train came from around that bend...

This is the appropriate amount of talking on the job.

we sent the deliberate air pollution of this stuff, back to the-west, by preloading your lands with bias to radioactivity and thermite. when the-west !max out air-capacity, we introduce polar cooling, then water, then ... until sorting then flowing then today, toohbad because its near summer. you started in winter due to going cheap on heating. this is the max-value revised by asians.

That is so cool, had no idea that's how they welded tracks together!

C'mon you could just use JB Weld.

Yup that should hold ok

0:03 he has fire arms

It’s very hard to understand how they get away without, at the very least, eye protection throughout the whole process, not just at the end when the sparks are flying.

Steht schon als Wahlspruch der Franzosen: Egalié, Fraternité, Themité ;-) ;-) Oder so ähnlich. ;-) Cool.

Hell yeah

Fun fact- The transcontinental railroad was built in six years almost entirely by hand. The work was backbreaking and highly dangerous. Approximately 1,200 died while building the Transcontinental Railroad. Over a thousand Chinese had their bones shipped back to China to be buried. Wow I had no idea there were Chinese people building our railroad beside the slaves-Reference Google

almost ALL of a video...

I know This is very hard work, Iam a track maintainer in Indian Railway 👍

I can see concrete railway ties cracking and breaking over time.

Who’s here after watching the video of the Indians do the same thing with prehistoric methods?

I'm a certified railroad thermite welder and they did many things wrong

hot snot .good job.

Just watched some Indian fellas do this in shirts and flip-flops 😂😂😂

Oh, that's gotta be hella good for the environment.

Maguinific!
