Railfans film train from railroad cars!

Post by ToledoRailfan » Wed Apr 12, 2017 9:13 pm

I'm not sure if the cars are abandoned or not, still seems pretty dangerous and possibly illegal.


And they also walked on this railroad bridge! :Eeeeek: If one of them were to trip they could easily fall to their death! This also made worse by the fact that there are tunnels on each end of the bridge! :Scared:


Typically you don't see railfans doing this! I don't know what the laws are like in Mexico for being on railroad property so what they're doing might be legal, but I have no idea.

Unless trespassing became legal, then it's not legal to be on top of a rail car. :Eeeeek:

I'm sure it is illegal... and while the engineer honked at them, I doubt very much he did anything else (like report it).

I just realized that those videos are from Mexico as well. Had that been in the US, then those kids would have seen the police station for sure. :glare:

So either the crew doesn't see this kid or they just don't give a shit.
