Pretty mixed really. Some thought I was a super hero and others thought I was mad
Generally speaking the loco drivers didn't approve of my actions although none would say if they considered the clips to be a threat. My guess is that they are assuming their loco would push the clips off the tops of the rails but I doubt if you could find one with enough confidence to try it at 100 mph
I don't think Pandrol clips are used as much in the U.S. as they are here but one chap with an engineering background, who knew of them, was adamant that they could derail even a monster U.S loco.
