Hilarious New Yorker Narrates His Failed Train-Hopping Attempts

New Yorker Jeff Seal just had one wish: hop on a freight train like a hobo in a Bob Dylan song and ride it out to Montauk, at the very end of Long Island. After years of hopping trains with his buddy Adam, and by himself, Jeff had story after story of jumping on trains and riding them to Pennsylvania, or other boroughs of New York, but always either got caught by a yard bull (the train's security guard) or ended up in some place that wasn't Montauk. At least he has an excellent sense of humor about the whole thing.
