In <em>Bound for Glory<\/em>, the railroad men tended to be hostile, so this made no sense to me.<\/p>\n<p>Then I went to hop a freight for the first time, out of Davis, California. As it happened, Bodie Wagner was living there, and I got his phone number from Utah Phillips and stopped by to ask for advice and play a few songs before catching out. Bodie was clearly a bit nonplussed at this kid showing up on his doorstep, but we sat around the backyard for a couple of hours, and then he gave me a lift to the freight yards and pointed out the dispatcher&#8217;s office.<\/p>\n<p>I went in and asked when the next freight would be heading north. The dispatcher said, &#8220;I hope you&#8217;re not planning to try to ride a freight train &#8212; people get killed that way, you know. I sometimes see guys waiting near those trees, just past that house there, and I just hope they aren&#8217;t going to do something stupid. So when that train comes through at seven-thirty, you just keep away from there, &#8217;cause I wouldn&#8217;t want you to get hurt.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Armed with that information, I sat by the trees, playing guitar, till the train came through a bit after 7:30. It didn&#8217;t have many cars fit for riding, but I was inexperienced (bordering on stupid) and eager to ride, so I climbed on a piggyback &#8212; a flatcar with a couple of semi truck trailers on it&#8211; which more experienced freight riders consider too dangerous for riding, because if there&#8217;s an accident the trailer can tip and crush you.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing like that happened, of course. I just lay under the trailers through the night, sleeping a little, listening to the wheels, seeing occasional lights in the distance, and at dawn the sun rose behind Mount Shasta, and it was the prettiest view I&#8217;ve ever seen.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure what the moral of that story is, except that you can find a lot of worse guides than Woody and Cisco.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another song from Cisco Houston, with some reminiscences of my first time hopping a freight train.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-213","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
