The rail grinding train has passed, but here comes a UP freight!         
The LORAM rail grinding train has just passed by on the track closest to us. Our pedestrian is to my immediate right, on track 2. Now, a UP freight is approaching him, on Track 2. When I looked to my left, the pedestrian was engrossed on watching the KCS freight on track three roll by, and was not looking towards the UP train. He had his back to it (and was actually looking somewhat to the left). He clearly had NO clue the train was coming, and it was coming at a good clip.
