I appreciate the responses. Here is a situation that happened when I was younger. In the small town in Texas that I lived in the MOPAC ran through. One evening the local cop got this bright idea to stop the train for going too fast. He chased the train with lights and siren's on for 7 miles to the crew change point. There he gave the engineer a ticket for speeding. Of course this upset the engineer a great deal. For the next six months till the small town, who at first refused to drop the ticket, finally did drop the ticket, the engineers would blow the horn starting at one end of town and not stop till the other end. Also during that six months the traffic on the line seemed to increase especially at night. Now my question is, is this a common occurance?
