QUOTE: Originally posted by CShaveRR Back a few years (or decades), Mike Royko had a column describing the adventures of a guy at Melroas Park who decided to climb over a piggyback car to catch his commuter train on the opposite track. He decided to hang on when the pig train picked up speed. Found himself in Clinton, Iowa.
