Was it the 3:10 to Yuma?

Better call the TSA.

This place never fails to amaze me. "Hey Cody whatcha doin? Lets go shoot at the train HYUCK!"

Attemtped trainjack?

I somehow imagined train spotting as a different thing entirely...

The bulletproof glass for trains was made in Louisville, Ky. I thought it was overkill but in this case it came in handy.

What's happened now?

Will bury those cock-a-roaches.

Train locomotive? Isnt that kinda redundant? Is there any other kind of locomotive?

give me doughnuts: "Think you used enough dynamite there, Butch?"

Heh.

Whenever the distaffbopper does something I think is a bit 'over the top', I use that phrase on her.

"Woodcock? Is that you?"

/nuthin

Le Geno Vert: "Woodcock? Is that you?"

I work for Mr.E.H. Harriman of the Union Pacific Railroad...

Ah swear Ah'll git ya fer runnin' down my pa at the crossin' like that, ya gawldurned, coal-burnin' catamount!

Dick Gozinya: "Is there any other kind of locomotive?"

Technically, any self-propelled vehicle is a locomotive.
So, yes, it's correct. But it's pedantic and douche-y.

when you have a crazy reason to do a crime, it's a loco motive.

We need bullet proofing on trains? Seriously, on trains. WTF is wrong out there?

So *that's* where "crazy-train" came from.

Dick Gozinya: Train locomotive? Isnt that kinda redundant? Is there any other kind of locomotive?

I'm not sure but there is another kind of train.

Nothing new. Bullet proof glass was a feature as far back as steam locomotives. Trains get shot at every day in Chicago. It is federally mandated equipment.

Well, didn't I see a whole regiment of fine young Alliance Federals on the train?

Everybody doing the brand new thing now.
Come on, baby, Shoot the locomotive.

Wanted for questioning:

texdent: Sure it wasn't a science experiment?

Damn you.

I heard Montana was full of dental floss tycoons...

This wouldn't have happened if we had simply armed the engineers on the train. How can something so American, like the railroad, be against the 2nd amendment?

Dick Gozinya: Train locomotive? Isnt that kinda redundant? Is there any other kind of locomotive?

Yes, there is. (new window)
Where you been, brotha?

Or from 1917?

I think it was mandated in the late 1970's or early 1980's. GE's Dash-7 series (introduced in 1977) had distinctive oval cab windows which were just plated over when the bulletproof glass was mandated since it wasn't cost effective to get replacement windows.

More importantly, did they plan the crime using a train in H0 scale or HO scale?

Damn! Those Somali pirates sure do have a long reach.

Approves.

I hear the train a comin'
It's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when,
I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on
But that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Antone..
When I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry..

I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars.
Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
But those people keep a movin'
And that's what tortures me...

Well if they freed me from this prison,
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
Far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away.....

Sounds like one of 'em train robbery holdups.

It was an attempt to rescue John Bly and Big Smith from this guy

Well, we also need commercials on tv telling parents to hang with their kids, and if you find a purse, you should return it to it's owner, so I think we're pretty much up shiat's creek at this point in time.

Wanted for questioning.

I would like to personally thank the Fark community for not posting any pictures from the Will Smith crapfest known as 'Wild Wild West'.

Seriously. That movie makes me want to punch myself in the nuts until I'm unconscious.
