WHAT'S WRONG WITH SOCIETY? if anything the IGNORANT GUARD should've offered her a cup of coffee AND SEEING TO HER SAFETY OFF THE TRAIN. How the hell can you explain rules to an 82 year old woman OR man? If I were that guard's superior Id've fired his ass for ADDING HIS SHARE to such a minor problem. A FEW KIND WORDS would've gone a long way and maybe the IGNORANT GUARD WOULD'VE BEEN COMMENDED FOR SHOWING INITIATIVE, COMPASSION & RESPECT to an elderly of which I might add who are readily ignored and neglected even by their own family.

If she sings like Roseanne Barr, I would have thrown her off before they got to her...

I was going to do this at a campground we were at last year. I wanted to embarrass my 15 year old granddaughter. I was dressed in my Zebra Jammies and my husband begged me not to. He told me some camper might mistake me for a wounded animal and shoot me!

At least they waited until the train had stopped.
Back when, like back in the Wild Bunch Days, she would've been heaved out at 35 MPH!

Her voice is pure gold. It should be buried in Fort Knox.
