I went to Chico for the weekend and where I stayed there is train tracks about 50 feet away. 7 times a day the train comes

It must suck living there.

Where'd you stay?

you get used to it. it only must suck for people whose windows are directly next to the train.like u can stick your hand out the window and touch the station. but i figure rent must be cheap.
 
my grandma house in Mississippi is like that, you can feel the trains go by the house. slight rumble

Lynnwood Appartments on 4th kinda behind Safeway.
 
my room is maybe 150 yds from the train track. I hear it go by all the time. Its those cargo trains so it lasts for like 10 mins everytime they come by but Imused to it. The amtrak also goes by like every 2 hrs.
 
Yeah, in college, my apartments were 100 yards from a track. You get used to it. I used to be on the phone, just steady talking while a loud @$% horn wasblowing and the person on the other line was like, "$@@? I didn't hear a word you said."

Agreed. I gambled and moved near some and it seems every other day Im stuck on the road waiting for the train to pass and im late for work...

Them trains go by minimum 20 times per day here

I lived at University Village originally, my first year, then "the Zoo" on West 5th....then downtown on 3rd and Hazel, but my last spotwas off of Cherry back behind the Safeway too. Somewhat near the tracks but my apt faced another way luckily. How was Halloween out there?
 
We've got tracks about 100 yards from my house and I've actually grown to love it. It's second nature nowand strange as it sounds, the whistle-blowing is somewhat comforting late at night









M!ke
 
Lived near the trains for 22 years .. and if i dont hear that train in the morning or late before i go to sleep i dont feel like im at home ..

My old house was right by the express way, and that sucked. I feel for anybody who lives by a train.
 
I stayed in a hotel in New York few weeks ago where the train passed by every morning at 7am. Of course they have to use the whistle every morning

i live 15 mins away from the kansas city international airport.

i think its weird when i dont hear/see a plane go by.

u get used to it.
 
luckily i don't stay near a train track, i don't think i could deal with the noise

I work right next to train tracks here in Seattle. You get used to the sound pretty quick, but they can mess up your timing with getting to and from work
