Railroad superstitions and eerie engineer tales told
Dispatchers recall odd superstitions and near misses on western rails. An old German engineer claimed a dream warned of a train wreck, a journey from Duluth to Brainerd ran five hours late, and a horseshoe talisman supposedly kept engines running smoothly. Tales span the Central Pacific to the Mojave division with warnings against rushing engines and spectral timing.
