Using a dummy of course. The difficulty might be in finding a flat headed train that can go 150 km/hr (about 90 mph)HallsofIvy said:
What I DO know, is that the goy who did the Great Train Robbery (in the 1880's, I think), had seriously underestimated the air resistance when crawling on top of the train. He was almost, but not quite, blown off the train, and his clothes and face were drenched in soot.willkoh said:
No. It isn't. Buses are also flat-headed. Now think of the movie Final Destinationwillkoh said:

Yes, it is possible for a train to blow away a person, especially if the person is standing too close to the train tracks. The force of the train's movement can create a strong gust of wind that can knock a person off their feet.
The strength of the wind created by a train depends on several factors such as the speed of the train, the size and weight of the train, and the distance between the train and the person. However, it can reach speeds of up to 150 mph, which can be strong enough to knock a person over.
Yes, there are safety precautions that can be taken to prevent a train from blowing a person away. Train stations and platforms are usually designed to have barriers or fences to keep people at a safe distance from the tracks. It is also important for individuals to stand at least 15 feet away from the tracks when a train is approaching.
Yes, there have been documented cases of people being blown away by trains. In fact, there have been several instances where individuals have been injured or killed by the wind created by a passing train. This is why it is important to follow safety precautions and stay a safe distance away from trains.
Aside from the wind created by trains, there are other dangers that people should be aware of when near train tracks. These include electrocution from overhead wires, getting struck by a train or its parts, and falling onto the tracks. It is important to always be cautious and aware of your surroundings when near train tracks.
