maybe the turkey was trying to obey the sign

On April 16, we were taking the train from DC to New York, when just south of Aberdeen, Maryland the train came to a stop. It turned out that we’d been hit by a turkey, which had shattered and knocked out one of the windshields. As the train could only move at a mere fraction of its usual speed without the windshield, all passengers had to be unloaded; we were put on another train a while later (all in all losing about two hours). I got a few pix while we were unloading and waiting for the new train.
