Just wanting some stories on some classic railroad pranks. As a railroader myself I have been on both ends of the stick and was just curious about some of the pranks you have pulled or have had pulled on you. <br /> <br />The best I ever gave was convincing a new hire on his first student trip that a running brake test was done while running next to the train. I did stop him before he jumped off, but you should have seen the look on his face. <br /> <br />The best I ever got was an old conductor sending me to the mechanical department to look for a car stretcher after I had made a rough joint. Now this doesn't sound that bad in itself, but the whole mechanical department kept sending me all over the railroad trying to find this thing. I still get ribbed for this one today
