I was driving to work the other morning and I was on the freeway.  Every morning I take this same route and before my exit is a bridge just for trains to pass over the road.  It’s a thin bridge only 1 track is on it.  Rarely do I see a train going across at that time of the morning, but it has happened.

Well that particular morning there was a man walking across that bridge.  I was kinda watching him as I inched along in traffic.  As he got about 1/4th of the way across, I see him turn his head quickly and look back.  Immediately after that, he whips his head back forward and starts running like a mad-man.

I am passing under him as this is happening and of course I continue to watch him in my rear view mirrors to see the outcome… JUST as he passes the bridge, he jumps to the side and continues running in the snow and that is when I see the train start to cross the tracks…. and it’s not moving slowly.

I had myself a little chuckle as I thought “THAT guy will never do THAT again!”
