well then the people who told me that change on the railroad tracks would derail the train were just plain lying to me.
Thats funny!!! We had a train derail down the road from my house about a year ago. No one was hurt but it made a mess. I was told by some people in the shops across the street from were it happen that it was derailed by a 4' pipe wrench laying on the track. The street that cross the track there is not that smooth so they think it feel off a plumbers truck. But it got two engines, Put one on it's side and derailed the other and three car carriers.
