Really? That blows for all the hobos who hop on the trains . And for all the explorers, too, of course.railroadpunk wrote:Since Homeland Security, train hopping has become close to impossible. Infrared is used quite a bit around most rail yards to detect warm spots for bodies. However, hopping freights on secondary railroads is more possible away from major cities.
Like I said earlier, trains freak me out because I've lost several people I know to trains. None of them were train jumping, though. I only did it once and not for very far and it was kind of a rush. I'd probably do it again if someone drugged me up with some good shit without me knowing . Otherwise it's never going to happen. My husband and father-in-law used to jump trains and ride them down the tracks to other towns. I've always thought that was cool but I'm too chicken to do it, especially now that you said that about Homeland Security. Those bastards ruin everything.
