  • i dont like be told i be Hobo
    Understand
    I say this not out of disrespect for Hobos whom i have much respect for
    i also dont like persons be posting i be what im not A loco bum
    last kind i be is a wast of skin u cash to
    when all they be doing is wasting space and your hard earned cash
    cash that should be given to Me or others like Me who will put it to GOOD USE and not Piss It Out
    Now i be Tramp
    I have a Home and Toys i
    I have A Life that i abandon for weeks at a time when i ride railways
    I dont drink and i dont like drugs except Pot
    I dont do Crime or disturb the public like most Bums Do
    I be a Tramp who ride hard Rail
    Big Diff Between a Tramp and a Hobo and a dirty wast of skin bum
    Hobo be like a happy hippy all drunken up looking for a happy time
    if they see a fight most will walk away
    a Tramp wount
    He will find something he can use for his safety and go and check it out
    he will smash teeth into face if thats what he needs to do
    most times its the Drunken Bums or Hobos that are in need of help after they opened drunken mouth filled with intoxicated stupidity
    so if your going to label Me
    Call me for what i Am
    A Tramp who tramps around the USA and Canada alone or with other tramps on freight train
    Who can derail them trains with ease or run the top of rail cars to trow a rider off the fast moving train
    stuff Hobos and Bums dont do
    Understand if your going to label
    label it for what it is
    Simple Question
    ever wounder what its like to set a freight trains cargo on fire as it rolls trough a vast stretch of nomansland or take a locomotive out for a ride
    Just kidding
    not what tramps do
    throw persons off trains or setting fire to them
    that would be jail time would it not?
    a loss of freedoms
    and we love freedoms

    A lot of folks get mixed up between the three. I'm more of a tramp too, but will work for a few days for a place to rest my head, boil down, and for cash. Most times, I carry a small pack, but not a dill pack lol, they tend to be a nuisance. As bums go, I have little to no respect for them ; they are inept creatures. I've meet dirty kids that I have respect for and some crusties too, it's the traveling gutter punx that I'm usually brawling with. Like always, I enjoy your videos, much to learn from and stay safe!! 11030!!!

      most hobos me know be to drunk to ride and wander about old rides they be on - understand hobo whom drinks is a hobo whom has no job and most hobos now days curb or beg more then the ride - they play the fill sorry for me game off hard working folk - see they live for booze and drugs and most folk don't give drunks real work or jobs cause as soon as they got cash they are off to buy alcohol and most dont return to work cause the are plastered for days and weeks at a time - now days they post a few catch out videos and sit around curbing or begging for change with hope the video posted will give them more cash or they sit on line asking persons to send them free stuff - sad if ya ask me -

    Labels are the problems. Each individual is different. Obviously there are tramp rules, hobo rules & maybe no rules for bums other than those created by others for them. It's always hard to control the opinions of others about us. The more we try the more we are trolled or trailed in this punny case.

Some want to have a label to gain credibility while others refuse to be defined. There is no wrong way in this & looking at it is a different way does not change the views of the majority. By the way I know exactly what you mean & saying, I was pointing what I found to be the other side of the coin which tends to be the majority. I see you flipping them.

    Hey bro, I love your outlook on life & really love watching all your vids, I'm really interested in starting to hop trains, I live in Reno, so it'd be easy, but I only want to do it for like a 10 day trip at first to feel it out & learn the craft. I heard you're looking to reinvigorate the FTRA here in the U.S, how do you become a member? I am as loyal as they come, & know how to handle my own, plus use my head, I'm 45, not a young, misguided youth anymore! Lol.

      @@Telestations I been watching EVERY & ALL train videos there is, ranoutonarail, you, wingman, stone thehobo, shiey, the red headed English dude that traveled through Canada, Trevor Jacob, the dude ranoutonarail traveled with, sexxxytimmy, street soldier, & a few other smaller channels, so I have a really good overlook on it, & I think I'm definitely hearty enough to make it! I don't do drugs, except weed, which is medicine anyways, so I keep a pretty clear head at all times, & I was homeless about 12 yrs. back, so I slept in below zero weather with minimum covering, & slept in the desert while at peak heat. I served 17yrs. in prison, so my instincts are honed finely, as well as I'm good at feeling things before they happen.
      Now I really feel like I need to learn about the trains, the routes, which cars are best for what, & other "life hacks". I currently have a home,my own in Reno, which I'd still have if I decided to travel a bit, so I'm not doing this for no other reason than the adventure, the memories, & to break free of my awful marriage for a few months, I NEED A BREAK FROM THE WIFEY!!! 😂👍

      Wow, thank you - few understand what a hobo be or the deference between a tramp, hobo and home bum - some say tramps don't like work but that not be how we are as folk - all tramps me know are professionals this includes all FTRA FTRC Members who themselves are all tradesmen - hobos most times avoided work and like to panhandle or curb for cash - that cash they spend 99.9% of the time on booze - if ya ask FTTRA FTRC members about work they did or do ya will see they mostly all be tradesman - ask a hobo about his work history and few have a history - Stobe was a tramp and not a hobo - Stobe was a tradesman - worked for the Coast Gard - now shoestring is a perfect example of a hobo or rail bum - never talks about work cause he bums on line - me find that to be class less - me spent years working on rail crews same with a ton of FTRA FTRC Members and like them me don't like bums or persons who refuse to work and bum off hard working folk whom got little to give and worked hard for it - bums also shit on good persons who don't give to them - them bums are drunks and a waste of skin who demand ya feed them with booze and drugs and in our eyes they suck as humans and are a waste of skin - i be tramp and proud of it -
