So he was an assembly guy? Making car parts, operating heavy machinery and such. About as American as it gets. Bet your gramps has a few cool stories to tell of his youth. My grandfather worked at The Gauge. In PA, back in the day, the gauge was the largest manufacturer of equipment and materials for Pennsylvania’s rail lines.

My grandfather has so many cool stories of his youth, working in the great factory of PA. Now that factory is a ruin being torn down. It breaks my heart to watch my grandfather visit it’s remains every year. Most of his life was served there. He feels that he’s watching a great part of America being ripped apart.
