    That sucks that no one would help you. Yard wouldn't let you use the phone?
    I asked the yard guys what to do or if there is a tow company around. They said to lock your doors cause we are not liable for anything that can get stolen and there is not a tow place around. told me to have the truck out by closeing time tomorrow. The first 4 miles past the pallet factory are forest preserve and railroad property. I did get caught by a train for about 15 minutes. Then its Harvey. Not a city to be in if you dont have to be. I kept walking trying to get home asap. I got stubbern and decided that im going to walk the whole way home. 5 hours later i made it home.

    Truck problem was, bad started = ground flywheel
