Pennsylvania

In 1968, one of my 12 yo classmates and his cohorts thought it was good sport to play "Chicken" by our park where the commuter railroad trains had regular schedules. Stuart "lost" in more ways than one. He got hit full on and suffered very grave head injuries and later died.

In our town, there's about three miles of track that doesn't have fencing at all. Kids cross the tracks all the time.

In the Chester, PA case, there was fencing, save for a hole where the boys had egress to the tracks.

I don't know how railroad companies can fully protect against kids doing stuff like this.
