  4. ehhhhh.....thanks for the advice, youre the first person ive talked to about this that has asked me to reconsider anything and that makes me think. the spot i catch out of is just south of the yard so to catch southbounds theyre usually just starting to roll but i understand what youre saying. thanks again, im going to do some rethinking on this trip.
  5. planning a trip in late december from the midatlantic region down to florida on IM. i know its gonna be cold as shit for most of the trip but i had some questions do you know what jacksonville is like? (jungles, bulls etc) is there any way to tell what IM cars are best to ride without actually climbing on them? (im going to have to catch it on the fly)
  6. well i dont think most people bring paint with them when they travel by freight train (just another thing to get in trouble for when youre traveling) ...at least i dont. its fairly easy to know where youre going, it jsut takes some research. ive found its better to take a day or two more off from work than you originally planed because train trips are usually not as simple as you planned. im a loser and just go out for weekend trips but many people spend their lives riding trains.

  8. its interesting what you said aobut art only taking 5 minutes. i once heard that hang williams senior would throw a song away if it was taking him more than 15 minutes to write....maybe im a little off on the exact time but you get the picture.

  14. the hobo lifestyle is one of the most beautiful things about america and i love talking to hobos and tramps about their trips what their plans are but it seems that the majority of people ive met who are hopping trains are morons. Im fortunate to be in contact with a true hobo. this dude never steals or begs for money, hes just a homeless guy who loves to travel and works for what he has. as of today he's the only "traveler" ive met like that. The reason i bring this up is because last night a dirty dude with a backpack came into to the restraunt i work at and i helped him out with a little change so he could get something to eat. i asked him what he was doing in town and he said he'd come from up north on freight trains so we started talking and i tried to help him out with good places for him and his friends to sleep and good spots to catch out. anyhow, as the night progressed he sat in a booth and got drunker and a little beligerent toward a girl i work with. then he asked if i knew where he could get heroin and when i told him that i didnt (and the girl i was working with told him he was going to die) he said "fuck you" and left. ....anyhow, thats just one of about 4 or 5 stories i have of running into morons who ride trains. it bothers me.
  15. a buddy of mine had a copy of a copy of a copy etc of "new york slim's guide to north american crew change points". that shit was amazing. it gave directions to the layup and schedules for the small town im from. its truly an amazing piece of documentation. its very important that its kept fairly secretive though. it bothers me that at the time i was carrying it, i had never been told to "protect it" and was not instructed to until a year later.
  16. another aker? thats not ok....
