Synopsis "Ghost Tracks: Surprising Stories of the Supernatural on Rails; How Death, Disease, Wrecks, Bridge Curses and Even Ghosts Haunted nov (in English)"

Nova Scotia's Celtic heritage makes the province fertile ground for stories of 'ghoulies and ghosties, and long-leggedy beasties, and things that go bump in the night,' but until Ghost Tracks, very few of these stories involved the railways that once criss-crossed the land. This work ï¿½ the fifth book by railway historian Jay Underwood ï¿½ is the first to focus upon the often bizarre events that occurred to fuel the fears and suspicions of railway employees. These hard-bitten veterans of foul weather, hard work, and cold-hearted politicians were not above believing in such things!
