I was born in '49, grew up with three rail lines running through my backyard. In the '50's in Summer we kids would climb the cherry tree along the back fence and eat cherries. The closest trains were only six feet away; the trainsmen would see us from a ways off and laugh and wave. The people in the passenger car could only see us for a second. We'd smile & wave, knowing they couldn't react quick enough to reply. Fun times.
