As a kid, I did that a number of times, but I was clever enough to be a few hundred feet away when the train came.

Once rented an apartment to a woman that got hit by a train.

Never again.

Now on renter questionnaire:
“Have you ever been hit by a train”

...the woman in her 20s suffered a minor head injury...

She should sue. The train was grossly negligent.

Fortunately she was hit in the head, which in her case apparently does not contain any vital organs.

They say the woman in her 20s suffered a minor head injury and was walking around when crews arrived.

Never mind.
