I cannot begin to describe how nervous standing in the middle of the tracks to take this photo made me. I’ve had at least one or two nightmares about getting hit by trains. Usually, it’s a busy trainyard, and there are about 10 tracks to cross.
TMI? Probably. I like the disappearing point in this, anyway.

There was a recent case in the UK press about a drunk guy who went to sleep on the tracks 4 inches from a live rail!
