How would you even get it there?
Drive it?

But no, you wouldn't want to take a highrail on train co owned track. It would be as fun as hell but the train cops would probably not be terribly understanding.

Dad has a hoghead on Canadian National for about 35 years, just retired a couple years back. I've been on my share of freight trains and it's a lot of fun, but god drat it can be boring on bad track with a speed limit of 10-15MPH for 20 miles or so. The alerter also drove me bonkers, but I guess that's the idea though.

I just ride as a passenger. I'm yet to be on a train that has hit someone. But I've had my day ruined no less than eight times by people being stupid.

Dad had guy trying to beat the train at a level crossing years ago. The guy lost the race and paid the ultimate price. He still has nightmares about it every now and then. :(
