It's funny until !

I always wondered what would make a person weighing anywhere between (90 - 350 lbs) ,Walk in front of a (47) ton L.R.V if it's a single car, and think it's funny. Let me gave you some advice, "IT'S FUNNY UNTIL YOU GET HIT". I've seen people fall trying too be funny, you the public don't realize trains do not "STOP" like Buses or Cars. What slows a L.V.R down is "DYNAMIC BRAKING". This causes the drive motors to spin in reverse, even at "10 MPH" using track brakes , guess what it's not funny anymore. Now if your lucky and don't end up under 47 tons of metal , Remember "ODDS" are against you, Because if we don't get YOU one of "Sacramento's" world class "DRIVERS" will .

Why are the Trains so "FILTHY" ?

I was recently ask why R.T. Trains & Buses are so Filthy .First and foremost, Management decided it would be a good ideal to let passengers bring, " Coffee, Fastfood, Newspapers & Whatever else (except GASOLINE CANS, CAR BATTERIES, or SMALL GAS POWERED ENGINES) they could carry on" . Not taking in the fact that "75% of what they bring on stays on" . And believe me it's not just the "RIFF-RAFFS". It use to be when I got too the end of the line, I would try to pick -up as much as I could. But I stopped , So if passengers want a clean Train or Bus they need too "COMPLAIN" to R.T. not ME, If you bring it on "TAKE IT OFF " there are trash cans it every "BUS STOP or TRAIN STATION". Last but not least ,Stop "GRIPING" when you see someone leaving "TRASH" behind , Because I'm " WATCHING" you "Do" it too !
