Wow, too close for comfort! My brother almost got hit by a train, he worked for D&H RR. They were working on a bridge and a train came along! He barely made it!True story.... I'll tell the short version.
When my kid was in kindergarten..... His bus stop was across the train tracks..... He got in too the tracks and freeze scared as the train was coming..... Fast. I heard the whistle blowing and had to run out in my fruit of the Looms through knee deep snow and tackle him off the tracks....a split second before the train hit him........ There was a guy hanging off the front of the train to try and grab him..... Glad I stayed home that day..... I'm tearing up.....ttyl
