I must have missed this thread first time around.

I can sympathise with Robomatic about his train coming straight at him experience. Way back in '66 we were driving to Czechoslovakia and we got through Austria late that evening. Not wanting to cross the border in the middle of the night we pulled over to the side of the road and took a nap in the car.

About three in the morning we heard this train coming. Of Gawd, the train tracks here run along the roads.

I turned on the lights to see if we could see the tracks. There was a light mist and all I got was glare.

I opened the door a little but couldn't see any tracks. Do I get out, possibly into the path of the train, which was really close now, or do we stay put?

As I was just about to get out and take a look for the tracks, when the train roared past on the other side of the road.
