We have had more than our share of train/human incidents here in P'burg.
I'll tell you a story about the Pennsy in Pburg (NJ) during the depression. The kids would holler obscenities at the engine crews, and the firemen would throw pieces of coal at them. The kids would take the coal home to heat their homes and cook with. That was a practice in a lot of places.
A buddy of mine shot pictures of this idiot trying to get his ATV over the tracks and getting hung up. He called cops and showed them the images on his camera. Don't remember if they caught the dumbass or not.
