"Two men caught riding freight train in South Australia" - AAP
Two young men were busted trying to hitch a ride on a freight train from Adelaide to Melbourne. Ever since I read an article in a zine along the lines of 'D.I.Y. Freight Hopping' I've wanted to do this. I've read on the topic and researched a little about the trains which make the trip from Adelaide to Melbourne. The biggest factor stopping me is the danger which is inherent in the activity. If I ever meet someone who's experienced in freight hopping I will seriously consider it. Imagine rocking up to a party in Melbourne and telling everyone you got there by sitting your caboose between two containers on an interstate freight train.
