Here's a railroad safety video from 1987 aimed at teenagers that's actually really dramatic and intense: "David's Run." It gets the message across in a rather realistic, gruesome manner. It's about how you shouldn't fool around railroad tracks and yards, or rail cars or any other railroad property. The way this video was produced, it kind of reminds me of the 90s "Goosebumps" TV series, except this is actually scarier because the stuff here CAN happen in real life, unlike with "Goosebumps." A Norfolk Southern freight train is prominently seen throughout the video, pulled by a high-nose GP38 locomotive running long hood forward. (Since Norfolk Southern was involved with producing the video, it makes sense.) I think Operation Lifesaver even still shows it to teenagers in schools and such.
