haha BOOGY, i think i know exactly where youre talkin about. Theres a few spots in Buffalo that constantly have shredded dear, like 3 or 4 of them, all over the place. sick shit.
NO SOIL CAN FILL YOUR TRENCHES, NO GOLD CAN PAY YOUR DEBT.
out here in Chicago we got metra commuter trains that travel between 60-70 mph in some spots and for about a mile stretch there are woods on both sides lots of deer cross the tracks to get the other side a lot end up getting hit and you can imagine what a deer looks like after being hit by a train going 60+ most of the time you only see pieces
yeah yall lucky, i aint by a yard or nothin, theres tracks by house i ought to find a place where they slow down, post up and get some flicks. best thing ive ever found on the tracks hmmm rocks.
stock caps. and clothing, bottles, nothing too strange. ohh, i've got this awsome ass hammer. its a solid piece of steel welded to a steel pipe. its so awsome it weighs about 3 pounds. i kept that joker. whats more dangerous: being cut with a hobbo knife or being knocked up side the head with a 3lb hobbo hammer? i say we ask mr. owl
dont forget, it was the media that coined us as artists.
VisualJAZZ--it's probably not a "hobo hammer" because it weighs too much. Hobos travel very light. More than likely, it is a tool lost by either the MoW crew, working on rails or switches, or a tool lost by a car knocker out of his tool box on the back of an ATV.
I travel all around the Houston area, around all rail yards and major lay-ups and junctions. I've never run into any tramps that carried much in the way of heavy tools or serious weapons. Most hobos carry a knife of some kind, or maybe a small pistol, like a .22 or a .25, that's about it. Pistols bigger than that are too heavy and too expensive. What they usually do carry is a bottle of T-bird or Night Train or Mad Dog, LOL.
what makes y'allll think this is a fun topic i'm still not seeing.. . everything found in a yard, or on the main at that is all typical poop... . wether its bits of old porn or that so called 'amazing blue water bottle' or even a broken knuckle (by the way, "wowwwwee," sike) is typically everyday railroad waste.. . oh that hammer you talk of is called a ballpin hammer.. . the railroad wants the conductors to do hands on labor when something goes wrong so their always equipped on engines along with those funny wrenches used for air hoses... . but they never ever nerver get any usage, i assure you.. . anyhow back to that other thing... . maybe its true that most lines are very rural.. . all you need is to take one good ride through city limits and see all the dumping from backyards to where trains have tunneled their way through the piles of 'treasure' .. im talkin anything from tricycles to washers, discarded stillborns, heck even deflated basketballs.. .you name it.. this topic will surely be dead.. ... . treasures my butt............... .
oh, just curious.... . ever drink those magical water bottles?? tasty isnt they!

that makes me sad!!!
one tyme i was walking down a line and along it i found like 40 toothbrushes, lighters, toilet paper (unused thank gawd) and other toiletries...my diagnosis is that a commuter went by and peeps flushed shit down the loo...(water-closet)
Sunday we were scouting spots here in Houston, and at Tower 30 we found a dead horse laying on it's side in a ditch by the tracks with it's legs sort of sticking up in the air. This was not somewhere out in the country, mind you, but right square in the middle of Harrisburg (a part of Houston, on the east side,) not fifty feet from several homes and back yards. We couldn't figure out if it got hit, or was dumped there or what. We also saw this crazy yuppie professional guy dressed in white walking shorts, tennis shoes and a red-and-blue striped shirt, with a cane tucked in his belt, that was walking the rail lines. Later on that day, down at T&NO Junction, the EXACT SAME GUY came zooming past us, still walking, three miles away. We stopped him to ask him what he was doing and he said he was just doing it for the exercise. He thought we worked for the railroad, and was worried we were going to turn him in, LOL.
i've lived by rail road tracks my whole life and i've seen some crazy shit, like one time me and my brother found a human hand when we where like 7, and 10. a couple of times we've found cuplers, wheels, and one time we saw a train car derail right infront of my house, hmmmm what else..oh yah those things that blink on the end of fr8 trains... i got one those in my room....what else...once there was a train that went past my house with a whole front end of a car stuck on the plow thing...
there is this one spot where i always find deer parts,heads, spines, bones. and there is this other wall spot where i was seeing little girls "PANTIES"<that word freaks me out.

i nearly stole one of those from my yocal station but i decided british railways are in too bad a state as it is, the straw that broke the camels back and all. the worst thing ive seen on the tracks is where passenger trains have emptied there toilets, that is nasty to say the least
I SAW A BUM FUCKING A PROSTITUTE UNDER A TREE NEAR THE TRACKS OUT HERE ABOUT A YEAR AGO......WHEN THE BUM SAW US HE KEPT GOING, BUT WHEN THE PROSTITUTE SAW US SHE GOT UP AND GOT ON HER BIKE AND RODE AWAY.......DIRTY SANCHEZ STRIKES AGAIN!!!!
i always find the normal crap, but one time i climbed up in between these two spans of highway high above the tracks and right in between where they meet there was a 57 chevy stepside truck that was torn to peices and rusted as hell. it had definitley been there for many years, and i highly doubt that the driver or passengers survived. it was spooky.
oh, and for another weird thing check out my little glass balls thread. i want answers.

oh by the way.... . those blinky red lights on the ends (EOT) are worth three g's... . but good luck sellin em
0ne day me and a fellow writer were geting flicks of some trains and i walked over to the bushes to piss there was a pile of dead rats like a big pile and a dog . it was the wierdeat shit i have ever seen walking along those tracks . some homeless guy probly killed them for food , and on that same day we found a vcr and box of porn ,. who knows what you will find on the tracks.
i came across a deer that had been hit by a train, you could see its insides from its rear end in, but at least it was frozen so it didnt smell.
on a sidenote, i found a can of baby blue rusto one time about 80 % full...and it just so happened i had a rusto fat with me. good times...i still regret not getting all that beer though...good grief
Me and my boy ikelove came up upon like a dead wolf or something today down by the river near the yards. Freaked us out. This really wasnt a yard or anything but by tracks casue there was a fat NEWA roller peice but i found a 6 pack or whatever of Mikes hard lemonade but i didnt take it cause i figured it was piss. I also found a toilet down there near the tracks. Man watching taht get hit by a train was funny shit. Another place i found like an add for a gay bar or gay magazine or something...im not sure but i flikced it cause it was funny and out of place. And you always have the homeless guy that wants a ciggerette and insists that he loves us and that we "shall never forget him". fuckin psycho....
i found a security guards hat is was heaps fucked up,and i came across
a snake aswell it was live so we threw rocks at it and ran away,i always find the windows from trains,people kick em out from tha inside and seats from trains they throw those out after they bust the windows,
