“It’s Hard to Give”

Shannon Smith
 
There was once a man who worked a train post to be sure that the tracks were always ready for any train that might go over the bridge.  The man had a son who was about 4 years old, and when he came to work with him, he always reminded his son never to run out onto the tracks over the bridge.
 
One day, he brought his son to work, and repeated that he must never run onto the tracks, but his son was too busy chasing a butterfly.  The man just laughed and went to his post. 
 
He was working on his paperwork when he saw his little boy chasing the butterfly onto the train tracks, not stopping when he stepped onto the bridge.  Right then, he heard the whistle of a train approaching.  He yelled at his son to run back, but he was to far away.  He knew that his little boy could never outrun the train. Then, he saw the train coming around the bend, with his son in the middle of the tracks.
 
He had a switch that could be pulled to reverse the train tracks, but then the train full of people would crash into the river bellow and die.  But if he didn’t pull the switch, his son, his little boy, would die.
 
He could only watch as his son was smashed underneath the train, saving all those people, but killing his son.
 
What would you do?

wow! I have herd that story before but no one ever asked me what I'd do. um...... I wouldn't take my kid to work with me. my grandpa was a train driver (i think that is where I herd it.) He hit and killed a kid on a bridge, his shoe string got coght, so that story realy hits home.
