If only there was a way to predict which path a train was going to take, to tell where it was going to go. Some indication of the danger zone, any clue would help!

Here's the deal:

I usually avoid train tracks.
When I do venture onto train tracks, I look for TRAINS!
The reason I do this is because I associate trains with train tracks.
If i see a train track, I realize there is a possibility there there just might be a train coming along.
So during the time that i am on or near train tracks, I increase my level of surveillance for TRAINS.
I typically get off and away from train tracks as quickly as is reasonable so that I do not have to watch out for TRAINS.
I am fairly confident that if there is no track, there is very little chance of there being a train either.

As simple and as obvious as that logic stream seems, it apparently alludes some people.
And i have a hard time understanding that.
