Ghostly Kids
Push You Off Train Tracks
Urban Legend: The
protective ghosts of little children killed at a railway crossing push stalled cars off
the tracks.
The Story:
This one is actually
true. It's been talked about on many TV stations including an Los Angeles, California
station by "The Earth Man" Garcia. It has to do with a school bus full of
children that had stalled on some train tracks in San Antonio, Texas. A train was coming
and was going too fast to stop in time to get the bus off the tracks. The bus was hit and
all of the children died. It was a great tragedy. The tracks are located on a curve
in the road but the tracks are on a small up-hill grade to both sides.
If you stop your car just on the tracks and
put it in neutral, it will slowly start to roll over the little hill and down the other
side.
A local Los Angeles, California station
sent a crew there to check it out and it was done on tape, with a San Antonio sheriff
present. The cars back end was cleaned off of any finger prints before the test was done
and after it was done it was dusted for prints. Several small hand prints and finger
prints showed up on the bumper, showing that the small hands of the ghost children were
pushing the car to get it off the tracks.
There are also claims that this is nothing
more than a gravity anomaly allowing a non-moving vehicle to move over a small up-grade.
But no one can explain away the hand and finger prints.

This is one legend that may possibly be
true. We have received many, many e-mails verifying that this one is real. |
