So after spending New Years Eve in Amsterdam and at a Danny Howells show, I figured I really Accomplished my mission, job well done, Lets hop on a train and head back to the hotel. I made 2 connections in the we hours of the morning(starting at 600am). The next to last train I was on stopped at the correct stop but the switch wasn't working to open the door so we could get out, needless to say, we ended up at a stop way past ours. Well, we just hopped on the first available headed back to Neuiw Vennep which is where needed to go.
Well about 5 minutes into the train ride whenwe had reached the max speed, A huge jolt and racket struck through the train. Mind you, we were right behind the engineer. So after the jolt( and I mean f'n loud!! we thought we were about to derail or something) The train came to an abrupt stop. One of the ticket dudes comes running up to the front of the train. He talks to the engineer for a minute and then gets on the phone. As he was on the phone, he threw me a bag of tobacco and somes papers to roll a cigarette for the engineer( kinda weird already). I was like ok. but i was too hung over and tired and offered the engineer one of my cigarettes but he was really distraught and kind of just wandered off somewhere else for the time being.
Well we sat there in the train for what seemed like forever. We were just able to start to see things outside because it was still early morning, and the sun hadn't quite rose yet. I noticed the engineer getting tended to and escorted off by a paramedic. We still can't figure out whats going on. We start seeing cops and firefighters show up, but still noone explains to us what is happening.
The giveway showed up in the form of two coroners in a black stretched mini van looking thing. We found out that someone had decided to take their own life by jumping in front of our 80mph train. The workers were spending so much time cleaning body parts and matter from underneath and on the side of the train. We couldn't figure out what was going on for the longest time, but when we found out, we were very shocked/stunned. we watched as they sprayed blood and such from the undercarriage.This was not the way I wanted to start the new year
The scariest part of the whole thing is I had mentioned that morning when the trains came racing by," Hell if you're going to kill yourself, this would definitely be the way to do it". I feel very weird about the whole thing
Just thought I'd share
