Decapitation by train

[person101]

At this point I feel like it might be better to just stand in front of the train if there isn't enough room for my head under the dozer blade. I don't think the chances of surviving that are too high if I position myself in front of the train well. If anyone has thoughts about just standing in front of the train like this, I'd like to know, as I may try soon.

I don't think I could go this way.
Takes incredible courage and determination. Or just a terrible state of distress ?
I knew someone who died this way.
He took a blanket and slept on the track overnight and waited for the first train. The driver did not know that it was a person.
He'd written some suicide notes but unfortunately the rain ruined them.

I think many rail suicides may be entirely spontaneous and unplanned. People just using the rail network and suddenly decided today is the day. They wouldn't have had to think and sweat over it apart from the actual moment.

It shouldn't be a problem. I don't know where you live but here, where I live, a train weights 86 to 88 tons (it depends), so it will run over anything that gets under the wheels. The speed would be a bit too slow in my opinion. It just means you have to feel it longer.
