Yikes! It’s like Trump is the biker and the Biden presidency is the train.

I crawled under a train car once. It hadn't been moving for close to 30 minutes. Right after I did, it started up again.
It got going MUCH more quickly than it took to slow down.

Never, ever, walk on the tracks.
At best, you'll get ticketed for trespassing (it's private property, you know).
At worst, well....

When I lived in PA, I had three choices for my daily bike commute:
- Ride through downtown Allentown
- Train bridge
- Take 3 times the distance up an absolutely ginormous hill with no sidewalk, no shoulder, and constant flowing traffic.
After some close calls with people who did not have my best interests at heart, I gave up on 1 and always chose 3. 2 Was always tempting, but I did the math: how fast those trains ran, if I was caught in the middle and one came by, I had a good chance of becoming plaster. Never tried it.

There's a railroad bridge over the river in our town. If you're interested in getting to the high school on the other side of the river, the railroad bridge is one option to get there more quickly (by about ¼ of a mile) than going to the main drag out of our town.
About 10 years ago, two teenagers were killed on that bridge because they were in a hurry.

Republicans would have charged in carrying AR-15's and Confederate Battle Flags, and shown that damn train a thing or two about self-sacrifice!
