I spotted the trespassers soon after the train passed by. I zoomed in on their legs and lower body. They are clearly on the right of way and at one point can be seen on the tracks. After the train comes to a stop to get clearance to continue onward, the trespassers can be seen walking back and forth. They decide to climb over the knuckle of two gondola cars to cross the tracks. I actually didn't manage catch them climbing over the knuckle, but it's pretty obvious they crossed because two figures can be seen walking away in a haste shortly after I took the camera off of them. This is illegal, dangerous and stupid. Don't be like these idiots. At any moment, the train could've accelerated and the slack from the cars would've thrown them around injuring them or killing them in the process. Also, before I had started to record, another pedestrian thought it would be a good idea to cross the tracks whilst the gates were down. The train was moving slowly, and the gates were down for at least a minute before the lead engine occupied the crossing. Still dangerous and stupid though. Once again, I'm sorry for turning the camera away. It was an accident and wasn't intended.
Enjoy!
