In the newspaper reports, he was near a train stop with train tracks that are elevated above the roads. But at the stop there is a long path alongside the track that he could have been biking to catch the train where he could have "slipped" as the train approached/departed. Or he could even have been walking his bike to the stop when it happened.
or someone could have been chasing him.... kappy jumped into moving traffic didn't he?
North Fullerton Avenue crosses the tracks at grade level about 1000' south of the Watchung station. Bruce Road and Appleton Place are dead ends that face each other at grade level on opposite sides of the tracks. That's about 1000' north of the station. There is a station at Bellevue Avenue at grade level but that's over a half mile north of the Watchung Avenue station. The path alongside of the tracks in interrupted by the Watchung Avenue overpass and the one at Valley Road.
As you might imagine, I am extremely familiar with the area, having lived on Gordonhurst Avenue for sixteen years, and I have bicycled and walked in that area extensively.
My guess is either the North Fullerton Avenue crossing or the dead ends with Bellevue Avenue a distant third. If he was, like a lot of idiots, riding with his earphones on he might not have heard the train approaching at the dead ends but N. Fullerton is gated, lighted and belled, as is Bellevue Ave. He may have been trespassing on the right of way because he felt entitled and the train surprised him and he fell into it.
In any case, he's dead and the world is better off with one fewer communist.
