A Brilliant Idea!

The idea is a good one but the problem isn't stopping the train... it's stopping the drivers from going on to the tracks in the first place. <br /> <br />I have actually seen, on COPS, one incident as mentioned above. It was a little old lady who somehow got her big ol car stuck on the tracks. The cop in that incident did the right thing; he got the old lady out of the car, and then used his cell phone to call the 1-800 number posted at the gate. There was a train- a freight- on the horizon- and I believe they got it stopped. I believe it took a tow truck to unstick the old lady's version of the starship Enterprise off the tracks. <br /> <br />In a situation like that, that is exactly what I would do. <br /> <br />Erik
