. Did you ever put a penny on the rail road tracks, and come
back to find it rolled flat? I've done that. Wonder if it works
with the new zinc pennies?

Another trick with railroad tracks...

My son tells me that if you take a metal pole and lay it across
the tracks close to a railroad crossing, the gates will come down.
I've never witnessed it, but he said he did it a couple times when
he was a teenager hanging out with some friends that live way out
in the country.

I am not absolutely positive, but in the USA, I believe such would be
a federal offense.

When I was a kid, if a railroad cop caught you putting anything on a
train track, your parents were called and you got a butt whupping. Today,
a 9 year old would be turned over to the FBI charged with terrorism and
paraded in chains for the TV cameras. What's happened to my country? o_O

How about these kids? (It's long, but it appears to just repeat so you
don't have to watch the whole thing)
