Hello. My name is Jeff and I am a conductor out of Illonois. I am posting this to let some of the rail fans out there know that you need to be safe when watching trains. Yesterday a friend was takng a southbound coal train out of the city when a father and son was killed by getting in front of the train. They were video taping and they tried to get a better shot by moving to the other side. My heart felt pain goes out to the family. I have experienced many fatalities over stupidity and carelesness. So please people give us some space and respect our right of ways.
