Jessica Dampier - Patience - Warrior Poets - http://armedwithvisions.com/2013/02/14/jessica-dampier-patience/ (Old poem inspired by a ride... They added all the pics and video, only the words are my original content. I have a bunch of old writing from when I was a teen and I should write more...

I am Danny's sister, Linda. I am looking just for some stories or better yet, pictures of Danny. I have two children now and I don't have tons of pictures, stories, etc. to pass along to my children about him, but I do have some. He was born in 1984, passing away at 23 years of age on the train...

I have a lot of great travel stories and don't want to bombard anyone with too many so here's a few for the kids. Many years ago I was bunked out at a good spot all just enjoying the moonlight smoking my cigs and drinking my last few beers waiting for a good ride and I kept seeing these teenage...

That not a train, that’s a bike!

You can be a hipster or a hobo -not both. Came across a couple train hoppin ladies in Dunsmuir. They looked to be about 30-35, and one of em had these big obnoxious shades on that made me think she really needs attention, but that's the least of it. They pointed me to the sbd hobo camp, and...

Oh my god what a great day. I'm planning to hop my first ever freight train from Amherst to Halifax, so today I was looking for spots near me to catch out, and i met two train track kittys. I met them about a half km apart. Both were super friendly and wanted all the love in the world.

Here's a question for those that have hopped trains with a dog long-term. I know that many railroad workers are prone to hearing loss.. and I know for a fact, that I definitely have grown to like riding freight with ear plugs in. So, why wouldn't I try the same for my pooch? Out of all of the...

Video about a trip to China. Unfortunately the video contains a lot of obscene words and only English subtitles are available (I'm not sure that the translation was made correctly) Can add more information: The entire railway line is fenced along with fences. There are no railway crossings...

Hey StP members and guests: I'm sure when you're on the road you have a radio and listen to Coast to Coast AM to pass time which is nationwide radio show late in the wee hours of the night. Subjects talked about; UFOs, Bigfoot, Missing Persons, Ghosts, etc. (btw David Pauldies will be on this...

At least that is what I was told by my VA rep in Saint Cloud,MN as I need to sometimes shuttle back and forth between Saint Cloud,Northtown and the Minnie VA on the Northstar Train

Disclaimer: I am a greenhorn. In my society (as is the case pretty much anywhere) this is what has been pummeled into our minds for generations: you're born, you go to school, maybe to university, you get a job, settle down, you start a family and that's it. You know what the tragically funny...

Intentionally wanting to make my way east toward Arkansas, I hopped a train that took me south. Taken back in the winter of 2015, I revisit my first freight hop south out of Ft. Worth, Texas. RaZin_do_'bos Entertainment

Found this interesting article about CSX https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/miners-block-train-tracks-protest-bankrupt-coal-company-64660931 So it said the protesting workers let one train through because of the police. Howmuch do you think that was worth... CSX won't say who got the coal...

I've rode Amtrak a few times in the past. Was pretty decent then. They say its going to be the future of rail passenger travel.

Between the wire fence and floodlights lies freedom March 29th, 2019 on the belly of the beast desert bound with the pot of stars overhead to direct this north bound train. Getting here felt like an intangible dream, fast and ambitious like the stars as their life pounds deeply on our...

Hey everyone, Last summer while exploring the West Coast, I met a really dope fellow train rider named Jarvis around June and I never got his contact info. We spent the night in a boxcar in the Roseville yard before I had to dip to SLC. Dark skin and an afro, kind of looked like Childish...

After attempting to walk to the furthest east edge of Bakersfield from downtown, about a ten mile walk, I awoke the next morning in an undeveloped lot. The previous night was cold but I was certainly warm between my fluffy dog and heavy, zero degree sleeping bag. The morning sun woke me, an...
