This is a question Lurid Work Stories

"I know a railwayman of 40-odd years' service," says Juan Quar, "and he tells me a new gruesome yarn each time we meet. Last week's was of checking the time on the wristwatch of a severed arm he'd just collected after a track fatality."

(I asked for a pump for the concentrated sulfuric acid, cause trying to tip up a 50l drum to pour it out into a jug was a bit dangerous.)
