Author: But that's Butte Welding, not Thermit

Thermite welds are great for signal leads and traction bonds. The French invented/perfected the Butte process that is pictured. In this picture, the welder is pre-heating the butt joints in preperation of setting on the one-shot crucible where the actual molten steel is formed.

That's a great shot, by the way!
