International Railroad Discussion > Be carefull with the trees! (Brazil)Date: 09/17/18 17:04 Be carefull with the trees! (Brazil) Author: pedrop A friend of mine who is a VLI engineer hit a tree at night and took a big fright. But he was not hurt in the accident. After storms this is a kind of accident common here.

Somebody could get killed.
