Hello to all !!! I'm new here and this site looks great. Thanks to the creator! So ... I have hitchhiked all over the country in the past and am now looking at hopping some trains. Originally from Kentucky, the only trains I seen there were the Coal Trains, the ones that didn't look so inviting. I worked as a coal miner and remember how bad the coal felt under my feet when the water flushed it out onto the surface where I stood and worked. (AUGER MINING) Anyhow, I can't imagine laying on a car load of coal for any extended period of time. I would love the box cars, though I know they're mainly out west. As of right now, I am in need of getting back up to Kentucky and I'm sure there are a few coal lines that head up that way via this area I'm in: Kennesaw, Acworth, Marietta & Atlanta. It seems as though I was on this site or digihitch and saw a post that had a link for train schedules. Anyhow, if any of you has anything relevant on the matter, please feel free to disclose. I'm also looking for a travel buddy, gender doesn't matter. I have nowhere in particular that I'm going to, and will be up for anything after the next couple months. I like outdoor camping/squatting, fishing, chess, drinking, harvesting, building lean-to's. Cheers!
