Thank you; I poated it on Defacedbook. . .

I lived near the tracks all my young life (until age 19) & saw this racxing
behaviour a LOT. I didnt have the bnumbers, but I knedw that a 100+ car train
was not going to stop in timie, even if the engineer sees the vehicle from 
his maximum eytesight distance, & cranks the brakes on. . .  that car will 
be, as you wrote, "get what he deserved"

My only sympathies would be with passengers in the car & the engineer. . .

I'm the sasme when I read of someone hit by a car while crossing a dark road
at night, wearing dark clothing, between controlled intersections.

The driver is the real victim, when an adult chooses to use him for suicide.

I wouold feel bad for child victims and anger at their parents, but it's
nearly always adult men doing this, & good riddance to those dummies. . .

If they are not capable of understanding, then they shouldn't be left in such
a vulnerable situation.

Not every "victim" is the true victim of a deadly accident.

pffff. . . back to FUNNY. . .sorry, all!

trains?

I hate train puns.
They eventually run off the rails.

Does a train have teeth?
(no)
Then how can it choo choo?

I was really embarrassed when my wife caught me playing with my son’s train
set by myself. In a moment of panic, I threw a bedsheet over it.
I think I managed to cover my tracks.

Q: If 1+1=2 and 2+0=2, what does Train+Whistle equal?
A: Two too!

I got fired from my job as a train operator and my job as a lightning rod.
I guess I'm just a bad conductor.

My boss said to me, “You’re the worst train driver ever. How many have you
derailed this year?”
I said, “I’m not sure; it’s hard to keep track.”

Q: What do you call someone who looks just like you on a passing train?
A: A Dopplerganger. (one for fans of Physics)

Q: What did the Muslim train engineer say when his child asked why a creature 
   so perplexing as the platypus would be created?
A: "Allah bored"

The pessimist sees a dark tunnel. The optimist sees a light at the end of the
tunnel. The realist sees a freight train.
The train driver sees three idiots standing on the tracks.
