I'm glad you guys are enjoying this topic. I did a little research to see if there was anything like it on the site before I started it. I didn't think Greg and I were the only two kids in the world that hung around the trains and rail yards... I've got a story for you I heard one time. I don't know how true it is, but here goes; Back in the late 1950s, some frat brothers at some college took a new pledge, put a pillow slip over his head, tied his hands behind his back and his feet together and threw him in the trunk of a car and drove him way out into the middle of no where and put him on a train track. The guy didn't know it, but he was actually on the side track. Anyway, a few minutes later, here comes a train, and the frat brothers are telling him that they decided they don't want him and are going to kill him by letting the train run over him. The guy takes them seriously and starts screaming and begging for his life, but the frat guys just laugh and give him a moment by moment up date that the train is getting closer and closer. Finally the train passes by, and the frat brothers walk over and un-tie the pledge, but discover that he's lost his mind from fear. This guy supposedly now resides in a mental institution where he's been ever since... I've also heard the version where the frat brothers go over to un-tie the guy and discover that he died of heart failure. Trainluver1
