Five young men decide to hop freight trains from Los Angeles to New York. Theirs is a rather impulsive, inadequately prepared, and under-researched trip. It's poorly filmed, narrated, and edited, but sort of a primer on how not to freight hop. For instance they're planning on a 30-day trip and only bring $100 a piece. That's laughable in itself because they like to stop in restaurants and drink beer, and probably go through $100 in a week.
Anyway it all ends disastrously for they are arrested in Montana and taken off an intermodal freight. That ends their trip.
