He and a dozen others were hoping to catch a glimpse of a ghost train -- the chilling apparition of a passenger train that came off the tracks there in 1891, killing 30 people. Instead, these ghost hunters encountered something far scarier: a real locomotive train hurtling towards them on a track that was 150 feet from safety. Kaiser and the others tried to get away with some falling as much as 40 feet to escape the locomotive. Most escaped. Kaiser was struck by the train and killed." http://www.aolnews.com/us/article/looking-for-ghost-train-man-killed-by-real-one/19612153?test=latestnews "Once we got to the point where twenty/something's needed a place on the corner that changed the oil in their cars we were doomed . . ." -NickDG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet he does, again and again as a ghost, since he believed in them. *insert ghost icon here*--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

JohnMitchell 16 #4 August 30, 2010 Damn, ghost hunting on the railroad tracks. Those people didn't exactly consider some of the scenarios, like a real train might come along. Some people don't give trains the respect they deserve. They can be surprising quiet on downgrades, be on you faster than you think, are are frickin' huge. BSBD.
