This reminds me of a safety poster done by CBQ's Tom Walker.  It showed two worried men pumping a handcar with a diesel tailgating them.  One of them something like "Are you sure you checked the lineup?".  I also witnessed (visually and on the radio) when a hi-railer got on the tracks, and then on a bridge with an oncoming train headed for them.  The operator was frantically calling them to back up and get off the tracks.  When they saw the train they put it in reverse and complied.  Norm Metcalf, Boulder Colorado

Hol, Thanks for bringing us up to speed on the motor cars.  Pun intended.  Since we are speaking of the motor cars that our fine brothers of the section were in charge of, old heads told me of several burial grounds along the right of way that harbored the remains of a wayward motor car who paid no attention to the lineups.  I did not dig there to validate the story but often wondered if it was that easy to "cover up" such an incident.  The only thing I ever dug up was a pot belly stove some section men told me about from the shelter at Lentner, Mo.  Lo and behold it was still there about a foot below the cinders.  Kind of rusty.  Archie also kind of rusty.
