      In case this is real: you realize that trains already exist, right? Crackheads don’t “steal the copper from the rail”, in part because the rails don’t have copper (they’re made of steel, the copper is in the overhead line), and in part because the rails are giant continuously-welded steel rails nailed to concrete sleepers; you can’t just pick em up and walk off with em.

        Nearly the entire northern half of california lost internet a few years back because crackheads decided to try and steal fiberoptic cable, which is made of glass, so dont question the dedication to debauchery of the american crackhead.
