Yard --> Trainspotting

 

I would suggest you learn a little bit about the workings of rail service before you start painting yards, freights, etc. Your ignorance will probably get you killed or severely maimed.

you dont wanna get snapped on? dont ask incredibly simple questions.

if you cant figure somthing like this out, you shouldn't be hitting steel yet...spend more time watching shit and working on walls...you'll be glad you did.

Go read the thread "Buy Trains Magazine June 2002"

 

It will give you the basics about understanding rail yards. ReadDuffy Littlejohn's book, "Hopping Freight Trains in America." Not only does it have a shitload of good safety information for tramps and trainhoppers, you'll learn a lot about railroads and trains in general. Rail yards are dangerous places to be if you don't know whats going on. GO LEARN.

is this a joke? have you ever spent any time behind bars,and im not talking about juvinile hall.i am shure getting chased can be a rush but the first time you get caught and spend a couple days in central booking and then find out you are gonna spend a couple more in county that rush fades away i promise.i will take a chill layup with good cars to a active yard with great cars anyday

Yeah, the chase can be fun, depending on some very limited circumstances. If it's some dumbass hero, it's usually pretty amusing and fun, but when it's any type of government-appointed authority figure, that's when it loses the fun and gets serious.
