Makes you Cringe..
Author: Technology-Jeske

I almost couldn't keep looking most of the time as i knew this train could/would move any second..

This is the course of about just 4-5 minutes, there were a couple pedestrian/bicycle illegal crossings even before this.

This is the UP (SP) crossing at Q Street in Central Bakersfield.

I saw a couple guys do something similar in Colorado several years ago, going underneath some tank cars. The train started moving, and they barely got out before getting sliced.

The biker who went underneath made me cringe. The other biker who put his bike on the shoulder that took the ladder had a "better" idea, although we aren't supposed to condone any of this, right?

Have seen the baby carriage stunt too many times in the Mojave yard. A nieghbor lost a foot a few years ago crawling under a moving train so he could meet his buds at McDonalds.

I remember years ago UP was assembling their train in downtown Tulsa, OK to take to Muskogee. The last car being a caboose was still fouling the crossing so some guy attempting to go under got on his hands and knees and about the time he was just about to go for it they pulled on their train which made him jump back pretty quick
