Well I've never had anything paranormal happen to me... but...
One day during the winter I was going to work which was not far away. But I came upon a Stop Sign Railroad Crossing. I attempted to stop...
But I quickly discovered that I was on some "black" ice, and I just started sliding, and I slid right onto the tracks... Then I looked to my left... And there was a train coming right at me.
I quickly thought to myself... I could continue braking, and risk actually stopping dead on the tracks and have the train hit me...or...I could hit the gas, and hope that I would make it across... I hit the gas!
I managed to get to the other side without incident, but as soon as I knew I was clear, I looked in the rear view mirror... and saw the train speeding past the road... I was lucky!
I was scared and shaking the rest of the way to work and for about a half hour after that.
People please, taking any kind of railroad crossings seriously... Playing chicken with trains is not worth it dying for! And yes, YOU WILL LOSE if a train hits you!
Stop (if there is no ice)
Look & Listen! (Remember that rain & weather can affect what you see & hear)
And Live!
