Modern day hopping
The event of hopping trains happens all over the world and varies from place to place. Some places are more critical on considering freight hopping a crime or an illegal activity and other places are more lenient. Freight hopping locations and routes are to be kept confidential and are only available through particular sources. This source is mostly shared physically, either by mouth or just passed on by hand. Exposure of this information can be problematic for hoppers since it may increase the dangers and difficulty of their travels. The railroad police, also known as bulls, have become more observant and careful when looking for train hoppers. the severity of the punishment depends on the location in which one is found.
