Shortly before 1pm today (9/10) we were startled to see several kids we did not recognize riding the last car of a slow moving northbound CSX train. Another one chased down the train and climbed on while it was still moving. When we yelled at them, they got off; safely, thank goodness. Please remind your kids of the Extreme danger associated with kind of activity.
