Greetings!
As a newcomer, you have to make sure you teach yourself how to safely get on and off all types of freight cars - while they're stopped. You also have to memorize symbols because that is what will help you figure out which train is going where - without that, you will be placed in confusion. As dangerous as train hopping is, your brain and your body will be put to the ultimate test. One wrong move could be your last!
Once you have everything figured out -- Charleston is part of CSX's east coast corridor which connects between NY/NJ/PA and as far as Miami, FL. It also has additional lines leading toward Michigan, Illinois, and Memphis, TN.
If you find a string of Tropicana freight cars led by locomotives going northbound, you might have to sneak into a rideable intermodal well and go north (edited) toward NJ. When you get to NJ, look for an empty auto rack out of Doremus, NJ since they send some toward OH and MI.
Chances are, make sure you fully understand how railroads work because they're giants! You won't find those in a toy box. Be careful out there. Hit us up if you need anything.
