I used to take the Burlington Northern out to Naperville every day. Once it got warm it seemed like once a month we'd have to stop on the tracks because someone got themselves killed. I remember one month in 04 there were 3. I thought they were all suicides but it seems lots of people just don't pay attention.
I mean i know sometimes people get distracted, but at train tracks?
