Unread post by Jochs »

Mishawaka Police have recently been cracking down on people illegally walking down railroad tracks.

Mishawaka, BTW,is a quiet zone, and trains are not allowed to blow their horns within the city limits, unless there is imminent danger, like a trespasser. I've heard trains blow their horns before, then report to the train dispatcher that there was someone close to the tracks and they had to blow their horn. Of course horns don't really work if you are walking down the tracks listening to music on headphones.
