I knew I was going to be a hobo the instant I saw a stiff in overalls with everything he owned stuffed in them poking his face from a boxcar door with a big smile like a photo. You'll find that, and others I've taken, from over three decades of riding the rails as a Boxcar Tourist and Executive Hobo guide.The freight train is a gigantic linear machine of cars hooked tail-to-nose like iron elephants that jerks away... exits the yard boundary, picks up speed, and enters the backcountry with the engineer blasting at each crossing. We have stood watching in stunned silence for hours gazing at what you're about to see in cracking this book.
