Hey, Mate.
I guess you missed out on this trip in 2015. Maybe 2016 is the year, hey? :)
I've watched all of your videos and I stumbled across your catch out video. Being from Australia, I had no idea people did this sort of thing. I then watched every freight hopping video available on YouTube. Truly incredible stuff!
I have a couple of questions:
How well do those ear plugs block out the sound of screeching rail cars?
Every time the train stops in a yard, are you not shitting your pants at the thought of the bull rolling up on you/checking railcars?

Hi Armin. Yeah, maybe 2016...
1) The earplugs block out the high frequencies well enough so that they don't cause physical pain. I recommend that people pack at least 10 pairs because they're really easy to lose and very, very useful.
2) When the train rolls into a yard I'm not shitting myself. I'm too cool for that ;) But I am super aware and always on the look out for security or workers who might see me. You've got remember, if the Bull doesn't know I'm there then I've got all the advantages. I'm hidden, the yard's massive and I can wait for as long as is necessary before making an escape. Keep a level head and you should be fine!
