This is something I thought I'd never see in my entire life

[@Mnbaco2]

That is the strangest thing

[@Milwaukeeroadfan]

It appears that even the Grinch or Santa aren't above darting out in front of moving trains. Not sure what those two assholes were thinking doing this, but one thing I'm sure about is that stupid things like this definitely go on our naughty list.

One slipped and there, another life or perhaps two lives gone. And somehow it will be Metra’s, Union Pacific’s, or the weather’s fault

What a near miss, they will get fine of $1,000

If they were just putting on a show for the holidays I really feel bad for that crew

@@MetraUPNWproductions7202 I can confirm they were not actors for Metra. It was the public

[@MetraUPNWproductions7202]

@ still feel bad for the crew in any near miss

It was so slippery last night too I got off there. If that’s the one that leaves downtown at 5:30 then I was on that one.
