The train rider story is a fake. He was never ill and he is fine still riding trains.
In the of the vid (in some versions) some employees of the Deutsche Bahn ("Germany's train company") leave the train und try to catch him ... they fail. But a few weeks later he was caught (someone recognized his face) and they tried to put him into jail. He didn't go into jail because he bought a ticket for the distance he "travelled" with the train. Train riding is not forbidden it seems but dodging the fare would have been.
True story it was on TV here in Germany.

and unless the driver was engrossed in a book, (you would hope he was reading signals), I would have thought he would have slammed on the anchors while repeatedly sounding his horn upon seeing a body in the 4 foot.

That's what should drivers do, at least in my country, as a matter of course. If the guy in the 4' is unaware and alerted by the horn, application of breaks would give him more time to get out. If the train is going to pass over him, a reduced speed will decrease the chance of him being picked up.
But yes, you're right, the driver won't be able stop the train short of that point, even though he may see a body from quite a distance.

A friend of mine who is train driver once told me that a colleague of his managed to stop (with just the locomotion, no waggons added) mere two meters in front of someone who wanted to commit suicide. He immediately got out of the train and asked if he was allright. The guy replied "yes", so the driver beat the hell out of him, so the suicidal ended up in the hospital

LOL - I am still trying to work out whether the potential suicide should class that as a good day or a bad day.
Plusses - he had lucky break and survived
Minusses - he got the crap beaten out of him and survived

From personal experience, if you are in control of 10,000 tons of steel rolling at 60mph, you don't want to hit someone. The train crews can end up permanently scarred...
yup. Usually more.

This reminded me a school trip we had a year ago
We were on the way to Ankara on train for 5 hours when a violent train horn interrupted our sleep. Most of us didn't care, thinking this is just some usual train stuff.
But we were wrong. We heard a big "bang" noise and hen the train began to shake with rattle noises. When we stopped, we were not allowed to get off the train, but some of us(me) manage to sneak out and took a look at what happened.
Apperently, we had just hit a truck on a railway-road intersection. The truck was literally obliterated, and driver station of the train damaged heavily. Luckily, noone was hurt(as they told us) and we continued our trip after 1.5 hour delay when a replacement hauler arrived. Here's some piccies:

I took amtrak from ATL to NY-Penn Station, and it was 5 hours late getting to atlanta to pick us up in the first place due to floods in AL and FL, so we didn't get to our final destination of Poughkeepsie (cab to Grand Central, MTA commuter to Poughkeepsie) until like 10:00 PM the next day
