Operating Engineers Local 513 bannering Six Flags

EUREKA, MO – There’s a new character greeting visitors at Six Flags St. Louis, but he’s not from the Warner Bros. films and television shows we all know and love. It’s Scabby the Rat, and he’s got an important message for fans of the amusement park from Operating Engineers Local 513: Do not patronize. Local 513 set up a banner at the park last week because it hired a non-union crane company that pays substandard wages and benefits to take down the Superman: Tower of Power ride, which closed in 2020. – Operating Engineers Local 513 photo
