"Ghost Train" Aftermath         
This was the SUV stuck by Amtrak #21 on June 5th at the Wilcox Road Crossing north of Poplar Bluff on the UP De Soto Sub., killing 2 of the 5 girls inside. They were parked on the tracks participating in a popular area myth about a "ghost train". Basically the entire circumstances surrounding the myth are completely made up, but that doesn't stop people from trying to get the ghost story to work. Anyway, these girls weren't so lucky when an actual train showed up. My mom had one of the girls in 1st grade a few years ago.
