I was able to cut the rock in half and was wondering is it a possible meteorite? 
Possible Meteorite Space Rock?? Found on railroad tracks near my house!

It does not leave any streak as common iron ore such as hematite will and it is also magnetic!!

The photos are blurry so it's hard to determine.
First thoughts is if found on the R/R tracks it is automatically property of the said R/R, and it's classified as a theft. (
just messing with you-but that is true)
If I picked it up I would think it was one of the following- Sperry Train grinding residue
The grinding residue is built up as would on a bench grinder and it drops off along the rails.
