Date: 02/07/18 14:10 Re: Not a good place for a drunk guy sleep (Brazil) Author: pedrop The engineer is a well known guy here and he said he was entering a siding with a couple of dash 9 running empties in a low speed when he saw the guy sleeping on the tracks.

The guy woke up and he helped him to go outside the tracks. The guy walked a few feets outside the tracks and fall again in a safe position, so the engineer went back to the locomotive and went away.

Back during my years in N&W Rwy. management, I was doing some work at one of the dispatching offices. While I was there, the railroad had an incident where a drunk went to sleep on the tracks with both legs laying across one rail. Of course he had no legs when he came to. Stuff like that is surprisingly common. Date: 02/08/18 00:46 Re: Not a good place for a drunk guy sleep (Brazil) Author: pedrop Yes sir, he was totally drunk.
