(4:10 - 4:20) And that was just a locomotive coupling up to the boxcars. The doors could slam shut on you and the train could take off, carrying you miles and miles away. That happened to Davey in a "Davey and Goliath" episode.
I remember watching this as a kid, I still remember when my dad called me at Dolores yard and told me that he got something special for me and this was it
6:15 you need to be 150 feet from the rails trains overhang the tracks. if something breaks you can get hit. STAY BACK 150 Feet from an approaching train this includes stations.
6:53 this next section is for drivers if your coming up on a crossing slow down to 15 MPH and prepare to stop. even if it is a siding remember all crossings are live. when you approach the first thing you will see is the Railroad Warning Sign it is yellow on black with the letters RR for Railroad and below it will be Pavement Marks which say the same thing. next comes the crossing itself on the right is The Crossbuck remember CROSSBUCKS MEAN YIELD OR STOP! some have gates and lights. remember these tips 1. NO RACING! if you race a train you loose, 2. DON'T DRIVE AROUND GATES! driving around a gate is dangerous and you can get arrested, 3. turn everything off noise in a vehicle is the leading cause of wrecks, and 4. BE ON THE LOOKOUT! trains can come from ether direction just be careful in double track territory.
I saw this in elementary school, presented by NJT. That actually encouraged me 2 do all this stuff anyway. There tracks infrequently used in my town, and during the 3rd week of 8th grade I was walking home on them and a train came, so I ran to the next block. Good times Good times
If your car stalls on the track, and there is no train coming, you can also call the emergency telephone number found at the crossing, and refer which crossing it is, which should be a number found as well. That way the dispatch can halt any train coming that way.
I remember this from head start Sly did somethings you should never do. 1. 1:05 placing junk on the tracks. 2. 2:42 throwing rocks at trains. 3. 3:40 hoboing and jumping on rolling stock 4. 4:40-4:59 walking on the tracks. 5. 5:29 going into a tunnel. 6. 7:30 parking on the tracks. all of this is dangerous don't do it.
4:57 "Uh-Ha! A bridge! Hehe, bridges are made for crossing" Stubborn Foxy that ain't even true. You can get killed, or injured if you cross a train bridge.
cont: Give kids some credit. Also it allows them a bit of "comic relief" while having to take in some very serious subject matter for the first time in many cases. I am glad to see that this video is now available on youtube as it is just impossible to "get" this OL presentation with the limited number of volunteers visiting schools.
At 7:27 - 7:45, Sly Fox just deliberately parked his car on the crossing and let the oncoming train smash it! I don't think it just "up and dies" there. Either Sly Fox foolishly wanted to see what happens when a train hits a vehicle, or he could've been trying to commit insurance fraud! :P Cars usually don't explode like that when a train hits them.
4:22 "Stay away from boxcars!" Yeah, but what about hopper cars? Tank cars? Flatcars? Autoracks? Passenger cars? Locomotives? Why stay away from only boxcars? Every other train car is just as dangerous. Someone who doesn't know how dangerous trains can be would probably stay away from boxcars, but they'd climb on a hopper car because a hopper car isn't even mentioned or shown in this psa. They do the same thing in "David's Run".
TX Trainiac It also depends on the freight train. Most freight trains I see in my area only use boxcars, wood-chip gondolas and tank cars, and sometimes hoppers.Cabooses can also be dangerous if you're not a train crew member, but those were no longer in use when the video was produced. (I miss cabooses...)There doesn't seem to be much to climb on with passenger cars. Most I know, you can only go inside it or out through the doors.
at 4:40-4:59 That's Dangerous! not only is it trespassing it is illegal you can get hit. STAY OFF THE TRACKS AND OFF THE TRESTLES! use the crossing if you want to cross.
She's got wings, so she can quickly fly away if danger arises. I've seen quite a few birds do this in real life; they hear the train coming (and presumably feel the tracks vibrating) and fly away in time.
It's a stock sound effect from Sound Ideas's Series 1000 Sound Effects Library. (I think it was some kind of Leslie horn, recorded on a freight train passing through a signal-less crossing in the late 1970s.) There's a LOT of good train sound effects on that library, both diesel and steam.
at 3:41 BAD IDEA! Sly did you know jumping in a boxcar is hoboing. not only is it illegal it is dangerous. if you don't get caught you will be thrown out by the movement of the train. STAY OFF ROLLING STOCK!
stampycatfan01 I don't think e-bells were invented yet in 1992. So they used a stock sound effect that happened to be a recording of a Teardrop Bell. I remember that same crossing bell sound showing up in the 1980s redub of the Gumby episode "The Little Lost Pony."
It's from the Sound Ideas Series 1000 sound effects library. I've worked with it before; there's a lot of good train sounds on the library, both diesel and steam.
Most likely. The Sound Ideas Series 1000 sound effects library has a LOT of good train sound effects on it, both diesel and steam, along with that US&S teardrop crossing bell heard in this video.
at 7:30 although this is a demonstration parking on the tracks is illegal. if you get stuck GET OUT! if in a car, truck, or bus use the door on the downwind side of the tracks and head towards the train if you have time call 1-800-AAA-HELP Triple A will arrive to tow you off or call 1-800-848-8715 for Union Pacific or the number on the sign on the electrical box or crossbuck for other railroads. if that does not work CALL 911! emergency services will call the railroad and Triple A. remember LOOK LISTEN LIVE!
at 1:11 I would not do that if I were you Sly placing junk on the tracks can cause a derailment. ANY OBJECT LARGER THEN A COIN IS NOT ALLOWED! DON'T PLACE ANYTHING ON THE TRACKS! that includes geocaches.

"If I weren't a cartoon character, I'd be dead as a doornail." That line is pure gold.
Domonization Animation I don't think he said doornail (no i don't know what he actually said. It was to muttery for me)
It's an expression.
“You’re seeing the light my friend”
Man, the locomotive keeps changing throughout the movie!
2:12 GP-40
2:57 B36-7
3:02 Rs-3
5:21 45- ton switcher
5:56 I don't even know what that is...
My nostalgia has returned
When the fox started talking I couldn't stop laughing, that is not the voice I was expecting for that design.
(4:56 - 5:25) That's a lot like "Stand By Me!" Now we just need Sly Fox yelling "TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN!"
When Birdie said "Take a look at things!" she kinda sounds like the announcer for old Playhouse Disney. 😃 Aaaah nostalgia.
(4:10 - 4:20) And that was just a locomotive coupling up to the boxcars. The doors could slam shut on you and the train could take off, carrying you miles and miles away. That happened to Davey in a "Davey and Goliath" episode.
At some of the train shows I went to, there'd sometimes be color in books with these two characters. Man I miss going to train shows.
1:55 Am I the only one wondering who the heck leaves a great invention like a thinking cap next to the train tracks?
I saw this in Kindergarten at Edgewater Public Elementary, it was presented by Florida East Coast Railroad.
I remember watching this as a kid, I still remember when my dad called me at Dolores yard and told me that he got something special for me and this was it

This video takes me back to good memories 😊 first time watching this when I was in Kindergarten in 2002! And a few more times until 2006.
I saw this in elementary school, presented by NJT. That actually encouraged me 2 do all this stuff anyway. There tracks infrequently used in my town, and during the 3rd week of 8th grade I was walking home on them and a train came, so I ran to the next block. Good times Good times
I watched this while listening to "Dumb Ways to Die".

4:57 "Uh-Ha! A bridge! Hehe, bridges are made for crossing" Stubborn Foxy that ain't even true. You can get killed, or injured if you cross a train bridge.
6:26 If Birdie says standing near trains is unsafe, why is she standing ON the train. Cartoon logic. :P
She's got wings, so she can quickly fly away if danger arises.
Train are fun to watch but they are huge heavy machines. I should know, I have been onboard trains before.
I remember watching this in school.

Sly Fox, you have caused CONFUSION AND DELAY!!!!!
At 7:27 - 7:45, Sly Fox just deliberately parked his car on the crossing and let the oncoming train smash it! I don't think it just "up and dies" there. Either Sly Fox foolishly wanted to see what happens when a train hits a vehicle, or he could've been trying to commit insurance fraud! :P
Cars usually don't explode like that when a train hits them.
5:57 If I werent a cartoon character I would be dead as a what ???
Dead as a doornail.
And when Sly laughs during the boxcar scene he sounds like Tigger from Winnie the Pooh.
This keeps reminding me of Final Destination
5:50 Run away!
sfox: hey boxcars
me: ooh I like boxcars
I remember watching the video at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum in the upstairs theater before they turned it into a show room.
and the engine sounds exactly like the jointed rail sd40t-2 in trainz 12
They used the same Sound Ideas stock diesel train sound effect they used for the runaway freight in "Atomic Train!"
4:22 "Stay away from boxcars!" Yeah, but what about hopper cars? Tank cars? Flatcars? Autoracks? Passenger cars? Locomotives? Why stay away from only boxcars?

6:09....very scary!
I haven't seen this whole thing since I was a kid, though. Thanks for putting it up.
This is my son's favourite safety video :)
You're seeing the light, my friend.
Dead As A Door-Nail
LOL
at 4:40-4:59 That's Dangerous! not only is it trespassing it is illegal you can get hit. STAY OFF THE TRACKS AND OFF THE TRESTLES! use the crossing if you want to cross.
at 5:29 BAD IDEA! going in a tunnel is illegal there is no way out if a train comes STAY OUT OF TUNNELS!
I remember watching this back in the third grade.
Birdie As Wilkins
Sly Fox As Wontkins
LOL
7:41 - I sure hope that car was completely insured.
For all I know, Sly Fox was probably trying to commit insurance fraud by intentionally letting the train hit it!
@wilek209 Where's Roadrunner When You Need Him?
@cstoczyn Oits Twelve as Sly Fox and Jeanette Barnhouse as Birdie
Who Voiced Birdie And Sly Fox?
I liked it. Very well put toghther.
5:31 says going on trains tracks is unsafe, goes on them anyway.
She's got wings, so she can quickly fly away if danger arises. I've seen quite a few birds do this in real life; they hear the train coming (and presumably feel the tracks vibrating) and fly away in time.
Thanks
GOLLY!!!!
Anyone know the name of the song that plays at the ending credits?
GO BIRDIE!!!!
GNARLY!!!!
Poor Sly Fox
Actually, things can't shoot out like wood! In some videos, I saw things get run over by a train, and the got squashed into smitherines!
at 2:42 BAD IDEA! you can kill the crew if you do that DON"T THROW STUFF AT TRAINS! wave at the crew 150 feet away.
Does anyone know what kind of horn is on the train on the bridge
It's a stock sound effect from Sound Ideas's Series 1000 Sound Effects Library. (I think it was some kind of Leslie horn, recorded on a freight train passing through a signal-less crossing in the late 1970s.) There's a LOT of good train sound effects on that library, both diesel and steam.
be safe around trains
@wileyk209zback Where do you live? I'm guessing in a city. Out in the country where most crossings are on gravel roads, there are only crossbucks.
at 3:41 BAD IDEA! Sly did you know jumping in a boxcar is hoboing. not only is it illegal it is dangerous. if you don't get caught you will be thrown out by the movement of the train. STAY OFF ROLLING STOCK!
Why did they use a US&S Teardrop Bell? They shoulda used a Safetran Type 1 E-Bell.
stampycatfan01 I don't think e-bells were invented yet in 1992. So they used a stock sound effect that happened to be a recording of a Teardrop Bell. I remember that same crossing bell sound showing up in the 1980s redub of the Gumby episode "The Little Lost Pony."
stampycatfan01 Those things were probably to rare.
what's that train horn sound effect
It's from the Sound Ideas Series 1000 sound effects library. I've worked with it before; there's a lot of good train sounds on the library, both diesel and steam.
What kind of horn was used in this film?Sound like a type of LeslieSL3
It's a sound from the Series 1000 Sound Library. It does sound like a cross between a Leslie S3L and S3K.
Most likely. The Sound Ideas Series 1000 sound effects library has a LOT of good train sound effects on it, both diesel and steam, along with that US&S teardrop crossing bell heard in this video.
@tpirman1982 What Does Insured Mean?
at 7:30 although this is a demonstration parking on the tracks is illegal. if you get stuck GET OUT! if in a car, truck, or bus use the door on the downwind side of the tracks and head towards the train if you have time call 1-800-AAA-HELP Triple A will arrive to tow you off or call 1-800-848-8715 for Union Pacific or the number on the sign on the electrical box or crossbuck for other railroads. if that does not work CALL 911! emergency services will call the railroad and Triple A. remember LOOK LISTEN LIVE!
I always thought maybe Sly Fox wanted to see what happens when a train hits a car, or it could've been an insurance fraud attempt! :P
Someone should remake this.
@cstoczyn You know, car insurance.
Sly could have just laid himself against the sides of the tunnel. Just like YOUNG PINK did in "PINK FLOYD THE WALL"!
Goddamnit Eddie...
when at full throttle
This Is From 1991
HUZZAH!!!!
at 1:11 I would not do that if I were you Sly placing junk on the tracks can cause a derailment. ANY OBJECT LARGER THEN A COIN IS NOT ALLOWED! DON'T PLACE ANYTHING ON THE TRACKS! that includes geocaches.
@wilek209 Yes.
OMG!
@wilek209 Long Live Wile E. Coyote!
Well, that may be funny, but the message sure isn't.

Oh, hello old me!
