In the state of Texas, "When two trains meet each other at a railroad crossing, each shall come to a full stop, and neither shall proceed until the other has gone."....ok, i'm confused...gosh i'll bet the trains are really backed up for hundreds of miles in that state!

That is quite a 'Dumb Law' LOL. I think you are right, no wonder shipments are late if they go through Texas on a train, LOL.

Train etiquette! "And the Fat Controller said you can go first". " No said, the Red Engine, I couldn't possibly go first that would be too pushy of me, no I'll wait". "Okay said the Fat Controller, who would like to go first?"
