The Crew Change Guide (CCG) is an underground document passed on from hobo to hobo with information about jumping freight trains in the United States.

It contains very detailed and useful information concerning yards, bulls (police), times, maps etc. However, it's circulation should be kept strictly to word of mouth, by hand to hand. It is forbidden to publish the document online, or in any wide arena. As hoboing is common in the United States, law enforcers are very aware of it as a means of travel and try to abolish it. Therefore, spreading the CCG far and wide will only jeopardise this kind of transportation.

The CCG can be obtained from most hobo's, punks, hoppers etc... found around yards or while riding the rails.
