Ghost Train

A man waiting for a "ghost train" has been killed after being hit by a real one early Friday morning.

Christopher Kaiser, 29, was part of a group of a dozen amateur ghost hunters waiting for the phantom train to cross a trestle bridge in a rural county of North Carolina.

According to local legend, a ghost train appears on the tracks every year on August 27th, the anniversary of the Bostian Bridge wreck which killed 22 people in 1891.

The group reportedly did not hear a real train approaching from another direction until it rounded a nearby bend.


Every year the kooks gather looking for a train ... well, this year they found one!
