its alot eaasier to get snuck up on by trains then you would think.ive almost been hit 3 times.and ive been caught on trains when they were humping the cars and was almost thrown off.dont wear ipods and stuff on the tracks,especially active ones.and stay very alert when near bends in the tracks.thats where they sneak up on you the quickest.basically just keep your head on a swivel and check your back every once in a while.you wont know sometimes until you hear the clicking of the engine...the worst place to be is on a bridge.mad fools get hit walking on the bridges...
Is there a meaning in the difference of the color of freights? ex:coal cars, tankers, hoppers and etc.
you gotta be able to take over a line with insides, take it over with throwups, top to bottoms you gota do everything if you specialize in one thing you really can't call yourself a all out king-Min
anyone who believes the net is an accurate picture of the real world is a fool, the lines don't lie go bench you'll see whos up-Ich
not really.just depends on the company.some cars will be from the same company but different colors especially with coal cars but it doesnt have anything to do with what its carrying.its just what they decided to paint it.southern pacific is red,golden west is blue,csx is a darker blue and up is yellow.chicago north west is like a brown or faded everest green color mostly.and mopac is red also and has that nifty eagle thing goin on.
just offf topic my grandfather worked for mopac and his first week on the job he saw a dude get caught behind two couplings and when they pulled the cars apart he ripped in half.like some m night shamalan's signs shit.where the bitch was pinned against the tree.just you know wanted to through that in thereeee.

no seriously if you are dumb enough to do that go right ahead your future is probably not gonna be the productive.
scares me to think that people could be that daft.
i think thats how alfa passed.he was listening to tunes and got snuck up on.people need to recognize how sketchy shit can be especially in the bigger more active yards.you should know what your doing around freights before you even begin to paint one..my opinion.
ns is red.i think.we dont get muc down here but i think ive seen a couple.but honestly the only people who know whats in them is the people sending them out or recieving them.when they move freights they call ahead with the identification numbers on the side and thats how the yards identify whats inside it or what company is using it and where its getting shipped to.theres no telling whats inside these things.and why should it matter?
just was wonderin cause i thought n and s was a east coast only but i was completely wrong about that. but it really doesn't matter about the color. I thought the different color cars were meant for certain areas of the country and etc.

NS is on the east coast.they deal in mainly the appalachian areas of the us.basicly everything west of missouri and they have some roots into canada.but its all over...

I did a quick search for train signals in this thread, but I didn't see anything so if this has already been posted, I'm sorry. This is good learning for anyone who spends any amount of time on the tracks, unless you don't mind getting run over or cut in half.
stick to lay ups.......the yards are a bit more critical of writers from where I am from
the local yard here has a rep for being careless.......they even squish the workers from time to time

Wear an iPod.. Stupid as fuck you'd have to be a total idiot to do that.. A guy In Fresno got killed on a bridge not to long ago .. He got smashed and his friend jumped into the river..

i dont live in Ct but i know people that do, and im not trying to ruin it for them. i swear, i would almost think you were a cop. youve been in the game so long and you dont know what the fuck a lay up is? dude... i really truly think your a cop. now that i think about about all the posts of yours ive read, you dont sound like a writer at all... lets see where your ip traces too...
Man, i just started looking at this thread, but holy fuck did i think the same thing. didn't research this dude and don't care to but damn, that is too funny. bro if you paint you would know that what you said made you look and sound like a total fucking TOY and i hate to even use the word. ct life most be peaches and cream if you can make it as a writer buddy.
on the same note i would sure love to know what turned up when the trace was ran on dudes ip.
Hey I want to know if you guys think it is wise to wear a reflective vest in the yards.. that way if a rail worker catches you, he might think you are actually caring about saftey, and have some common sense. Pros? Cons?
