When I go to work as a railroad engineer, I ask my wife to wrap my meals of
leftovers and such in aluminium or even tupperware. We put the food on the BIG
12
cylinder diesel motors of our locomotives to warm them up. It takes about an
hour
to make anything just right. When you're out there on the rails for 12 hours or
more everyday a cold lunch gets old.
