Sometimes I walk on the railroad tracks.

That is about the extent of my travels.

I'm an urban pedestrian.

I used to ride the rails when I was young, when the trains went slow enough behind my house, only went about half mile at a time.

I've wanted to hop for a long time, but never got up to do it. I already know the route I want to ride, not for transportation but as a "recreational hobo".

Me and my friend have decided we need a rail frequency scanner before we can hop anything.

I recently saw a news special about how the law has been cracking down on freight riders because of the amount of transient crime it causes.  Apparently, it's very easy to murder someone on one train, and then hop onto another and disappear.

Also, people steal shit from the freight liners all the time. :thumbdown:

I've travelled without a ticket a few times, from Germany to Sweden. But it was in the passenger car.
