deformatron Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 I heard that one of the reasons that security is becoming tighter on yards is because people steal shit out of boxcars. what do they ship that people want? i always thought it was mostly pallettes, sand, coal, and stuff in bulk that nobody could use or carry themselves.

Guest Are2 Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 that is a problem in my area.. there are usually tropicana juice jugs all over the place.. people do it for the fuck of it..i know more than a few (foolish) writers who have done it.. they've gotten plenty of stupid shit, like paper towels, but they have also gotten beer i have heard (sad) stories of mail being stolen as well. ...PEOPLE WILL STEAL ANYTHING it doesn't have to be of any value.. and yes, it brings a lot of heat down.

Cracked Ass Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 Sore subject. We've covered this before. The vast majority of cars carry stuff that is useless or even impossible to steal: bricks, lumber, giant rolls of paper, coal, limestone, clay, chemicals, grain, plastic pellets, etc. The trouble is that rarely cars will carry coffee (110 lb. bags), beer or wine or some other reasonably desirable cargo. There are some hot spots where people know there are beer cars, and security has gone up drastically in those areas due to breakins. Obviously, this activity brings heat big-time. I and my boys will straight up vick anybody we see breaking into cars, unless we're seriously outnumbered or in unfamiliar territory. I would at least consider fronting as an angry worker rolling on them. (Depending on your location, you may not want to try this, you could always get killed rolling on some well-armed thieves.)

Cracked Ass Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 sorry for the slang i was under the impression "vic" as a verb was short for "victimize" as in "fuck you up and take your shit"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secs Oner Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 i saw a show on a&e where they were staking out a yard waiting for looters... they rolled up on some mexicans stealing tommy hilfiger gear out of a boxcar. so, like cracked said, there is some desireable loot for illegal aliens to take.

mental invalid Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 ...um not to speak for cracked, but he was not infering that the theives were illegal aliens nor common theives, its was directed at writers whose only business should be to hit the train and leave the place ninja style....

imported_joewelcome Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 "vic" and "vamp" are both still used in NY, and i've always been under the impression that they both came from graff crews (VIC, TVS) who had a rep for robbing people of paint. i knew LOTS of people who used to use vic as a verb meaning 'to steal'. nothing as sophisticated as 'victimize'. sorry for the semantics crak'd, i knew what you meant.

Main Line Posted March 16, 2002 Share Posted March 16, 2002 I remember back in 1989 when I was in Jonior High we were horseing around in this freight yard, this was before I wrote, we found a car carrying rice crispies. the door was slightly open. Of course we got our razors out and slashed up as many boxes as we could. Man that was fun as hell. there were rice crispies all over the yard. I sure wish i could come to some of your yards and make a mess like that. If for nothing else just to piss you faggots off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
