Description

This week, Krista meets James Allen and his wife Nancy, who spent the mid-70s to early 80s pursuing an unusual hobby: train hopping. In 1974, Jim spotted a freight train full of wide-open, empty box cars and wondered if he might be able to sneak inside for an afternoon joy ride. Fast forward a few years, and train hopping was his favorite mode of travel. He even got Nancy and some friends in on the fun. This is a truly wild story that we couldn't wait to share.
