Railroad Tragedy

Story★★★★

October 12, 1998, 6 men were killed in the pre-dawn hours while sleeping inside the rails of a train track. The incident took place around 3:15 AM when a southbound Union Pacific train with 105 cars was about 50 miles north of Harlington, Texas. The crew was unable to stop the 45 mph train in time and none of the 6 men were adequately awakened by their hope by the horn.
