I am so glad that you got this shot of RSSX 353 as I spent three weeks working in this Sunoco plant during the winter of 2008. I worked as a safety officer for one of the contractors performing repairs in a partial plant outage. I never seamed to get hired in the right place at the right time, weather wise. Just my 'luck of the draw" to work this Toledo plant on the night shift, and endure the snow and ice. My other bad luck was to work an outage in the Sunoco refinery in Tulsa, on the day shift, in Tulsa's high heat and humidity. While in Toledo the workers were hauled around the plant on school buses. One night in particular the lake effect snow came down so hard and fast that the plant's plow equipped pick up trucks could not get the job done. So the plant brought out a front loader that was equipped with a wide front blade, that got the job done. I never could get a shot of 353 either inside the plant or crossing the street as you did. All outside contractor employees now have to have a Transportation Worker Identification Credential issued by the Transportation Safety Administration. I have my TWIC card but have not had a chance to use it. I always considered 353 as "One that got away ! Thanks for your shot Michael, and your lucky chance to get it !
