shameless self promotion Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 On A&E tonight: Murder on the Tracks: Aug. 1st 8pm ET From the Civil War to the Depression, millions hopped freight trains, living a hobo life. But hobos are being replaced by thugs and gangs that are turning railways into Crime Central. Meet retired cop Bob Grandinetti, who spent 15 years tracking the FTRA (Freight Train Riders of America), an underground fraternity that grew from a group of hobos into a violent gang. TVPG cc Ive seen this before, but its a pretty interesting show. Has some shots of freights in background and etc. Just a heads up.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunTimePartyTeam Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Did anyone watch this? I did. Interesting stuff. I think they tried to avoid having pictures of any graf in it, and they were mentioning all these crimes going on around the tracks, but no mention of graf.

SpyD Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 saw it. it was pretty dope. Kinda makes me rethink my dream of riding the rails to Cali and back. Dont want the FTRA on my ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunTimePartyTeam Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Yeah theys some hard honkeys. But Id like to meet that one dude Guitar Johnny or Guitar something, he seemed cool, along with that dude Frog. It also seemed that they were really trying to instill fear into people, so it may be really exagerated about how bad the FTRA are. Who knows, not me. All I know is they were busting that dude for stealing a microwave, and they were using infra red goggles, thats not fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
