On a DPU, that's the remote controlled locomotive on the rear of the train, it was a "hobo". fricking bums piss all over the place.
I've wondered if y'all have cams on the DPUs? I figured there would be, but I've seen hobo videos with guys riding in DPUs. Do some not work, or do y'all just not care sometimes?

Gone like yesterday
Gone like a freight train
Gone like a soldier in the civil war
Bang Bang

I used to hear the loud whistle
Of a steam engine that was short lived
Gliding the rails like a guided missle
That had no more to give
I saw the men that shoveled the coal
To launch the projectile towards the goal
I saw the man just a train conductin'
He was very fond of men buttfu.........nevermind.

The cams aren't livestreamed. They're recorded along with the event recorder.

Of course not. He said he was looking into the engine cab, not under the greasy blanket you're using in your filthy boxcar.

Disagree. I say it’s Texas 1947.

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

I matched the speed of the rear engine of the train for miles. I could see over into the cab and the inside lighting looked incredibly cozy, and romantic. I was the only vehicle on the road and I paced with the train until we got into town. Sometimes I saw movement in the cab and I wondered who was in there and I wanted to experience that light on the cold night as the snow just started to blow
This is some great imagery. Great setup really.
You could paint a story of a man driving in the snow and watching the people in the train. Living oh so different lives. The contrast is striking.
