Lady Bird TBM

I love a challenge. Like tunneling 4 miles deep underground. I'm passionate about the environment and dirt. Read more about me at:

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

To the free skies unpent and glad and strong.

(To a Locomotive In Winter - Walt Whitman)

Farewell, for now.

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Thy trills and shrieks by rocks and hills return'd,

Launch'd o'er the praries wide, across the lakes,

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Thy madly-whistled laughter, echoing, rumbling like an earthquake, rousing all,

Law of thyself complete, thine old track firmly holding,

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Fierce-throated beauty!
Roll through my chant with all thy lawless music,thy swinging lamps at night,

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Of course I can't go without forcing you to relive my journey, tweet by painful tweet via @Storify https://t.co/e1QRrJk5bw

@melduckie Thanks!

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

@melduckie Poor Bertha. I'm pulling for her.

24,200 linear feet of tunnel, 1000 tweets and 1000 followers. I think my work here is done.

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

@theJRWproject Right back at you!

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Well, you might not care, but Ann-Margret is pretty upset about me leaving: https://t.co/VT3bZo7eFp

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

I couldn't have done it without this guy @theJRWproject, resident engineer and source of many tweetable tidbits.

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Big shoutout to my partners in this effort including @TraylorBros @SkanskaUSA Jay Dee and @EPCConsultants

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

@EricFidler Oh sure, and have you complain about my work for the next 30 years? Thanks but no thanks.

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

This is dangerous work, but they do it expertly and safely. I was in good hands from start to finish..

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

As I prepare to say my goodbyes, a huge thank you to everyone who worked on the project incldg 115 DC residents.

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

Good morning. Better hurry and get those "boring" puns and jokes in. There's still a couple of you I haven't heard from. #NeverGetsOld

You've seen 1 time lapse video, you've seen them all, right? Except they don't all end like this: https://t.co/k2ya6iTqzz

[Lady Bird TBM @LadyBirdTBM]

What is it? Who put it here? What's taking it so long to get to the surface? https://t.co/k2ya6iBPaZ
