For the many reasons why people disagree with this method on the many threads that this method has come up on. Train suicides are bad for people involved and will leave you in worse condition if the method fails. I have seen plenty of videos and images of people who have survived train suicides and it is not pretty. Also the thought of having my body decapitated or dismembered is not fair for my family as they will not be able to have a proper funeral.

You'd still feel the vibrations on the tracks for a long time before it hit you, and I think that might be the most terrifying sensation of all.
Also, drugging yourself doesn't guarantee you're going to remain in the same position the whole time until a train comes along and hits you. What if you move in your sleep or whatever? Best case, you roll off the tracks... worst case, you end up surviving with horrible injuries.
I also think there's potential for a lot of emotional trauma for the driver, even if he never sees that he hit you. They're bound to figure out which train did it at some point. That would haunt me if I was the driver... Finding out I did that and never realized, analysing the timeframe and trying to figure out how you could NOT know and going over and over it to prove to yourself you really never saw any warning signs and there was nothing you could have done. It could drive a person crazy overthinking that.
Why so? For religious purposes or the sight of the first person who will discover your body?

Do not use this method. Traumatic and very unfair on the train driver. The fact that you were camouflaged in black and they couldn't have seen you at night isn't going to make it any easier for them to not blame themselves.
Nah, I'm sorry. It doesn't matter what my head's covered with, what I've taken or how loud the music is, there's no WAY I'm gonna be able to just lie there waiting for such a violent end. My mind will be doing somersaults and there's *every* chance I'll chicken out.
Even if no-one on the train sees you 'cos you did it in the darkness of the night, someone's still going to find the mangled body the next day, then someone else needs to ID it, after that someone's gotta remove it... a VERY messy & selfish way to go IMHO...
It'd be a totally different scenario if you were to go to the opposite end of the scale & somehow acquire the holy grail of some pentobarbital; the death is peaceful as you pass out prior to your respiratory system shutting down. Ok, there's still gonna be trauma when you're found, but the scope & horror will be *vastly* reduced...
Such a violent and manly way to go...

I think it's all just procrastination discussing the "manliness of method".
If none of us had ANY reservations whatsoever about ctb, we'd not be here discussing the ins and outs; we'd just do it as quickly as possible...! But it's a MASSIVE undertaking and it will change lives forever, so no amount of time is too much time to make a decision one way or another...

this place is The Bus Stop for a reason: some of us are doing it as quickly as possible. We're gathering supplies, or whatever (waiting for the bus) and sitting around talking.

I wouldn't be able to ctb this way. Just the idea of the train coming closer scares the shit out of me. And also this can ruin the driver's life as it can mentally traumatize them for life...
Tbh my first suicidal ideation was using a train track. I thought about taking a bike lock, locking myself to the tracks and throwing the key out if reach.
On reflection this would so horrific for me. The panic of realising there was no escape would be unbearable. And people do weird things in life or death situation, I'd be scared I'd try and bite through my arm or something to escape.
If fear isn't an issue for you jumping is probably a safer bet than train. Wait people fail to fully comprehend us that for the train drive they get hit with two lots of trauma. Obviously the trauma of having killed someone, but also the trauma of not being able to do anything to stop it. They put that guilt on themselves.
Suicide isn't a selfish act, but making someone unwilling kill you makes it one.

I think this may have been discussed already but I've had direct experience of this and the fallout from it was horrendous (grandpoppa did similar to this and we had to go to coroners Court, the testimony of the driver was harrowing).
That said someone has to find you (in most cases) which will be pretty traumatic for someone sooner or later... I have no useful answer here.
Your drawing was neat though

I thank you for all ypur feedback. I see now that it's not a good idea.......it was just an idea that popped up in mind and I didnt know if it were good or bad, but discussion on it, has been interesting and made me realize it is probably not a good idea.
Of course it is. that doesnt mean it's a bad thing though. Being selfish does not neccesarily = bad. But it is selfish in that it is something you do, only for you you.

Actually .. if you read the link you supplied ..
The title of the article is "Myths About the Brain" . You basically quoted a myth

I concur .
Many people go to Beachy Head drugged and drunk , stand at the cliff's edge (one foot in the air) , waiting for a light breeze or to lose balance -- but just can't. Overwhelming sensory input of imminent death (sight sound etc) flooding the body is horrific.

This.
I've said many times here, that I intended to be a jumper.
It's simple, right?
Foolproof, too!
CON: getting on scene, noticing "holy shit that's a long way down even though I really want to die," and hesitating. That first moment of hesitation, and you're back in the hospital.
There may be additional factors that need to be considered.
e.g. Does the train have excellent lights ? Perhaps the driver sees pretty much everything.
Is there something at the front of the train that might push you out of the way ?
e.g. some type of "wheel guard" ?
Perhaps you might need to wait for the first few cars of the train to pass (without you being seen), and then get in position, but for that the train might need to be going quite slow, which might still be okay, but you need to figure it out...
A lot might depend on the specific type of train.
All of these things would need to be investigated.
I believe there may be some very gory websites where you can try looking for videos if you were wanting to try to figure out more about this, although that might not be a very pleasant viewing experience.

Decapitation... 12gauge to the head... All this horror... When i just started my research, i found this guy on quora who said: if thats what you decided to do, the premium option is intravenous injection of opioid narcotics. The only ticket home...
