What gives all railfans a bad name.
Title:  What gives all railfans a bad name.
Description:  While CR SDP45 6699 was pushing hard on ex-PRR cabin 23204 and CR 18099 on track 2, my railfan buddy captured more than he expected, and something that gives all railfans a bad name. Either drunk, drugged, or too stupid to have any sense, this suicidal trespasser sat on track 1 at Horseshoe curve in July, 1978. Fortunately, the man left the tracks before being run over or crushed between trains. With permission.
