When I was a little kid I had to cross a railroad track when walking to and from school. My mom told me that I would be sucked underneath the train if I got too close to the tracks. Probably her way of trying to protect me from the fast moving freight trains. But to this day I freak if we're driving in a car and I hear the train whistle and the red lights go off and we're about to cross the tracks!!
