Narrative

While the EE was attempting to remove a section of mono rail, he had removed the roll pin from the out-by end of the mon-rail. As he cut the links of the belt chain with a pair of bolt cutters, the section of mono-rail dropped and smashed his ring finger on his right hand, which required stitches.
