Runaway Caboose Hero Bob Dashes Down Virginia Rails
In Linden, Virginia, Bob the ex slave herder boards a moving caboose after the train crew forgets to reset the brake. The caboose careens along scenic grades past Wapping and Happy Creek, with Bob waving to astonished workers and singing as the train roars. The descent ends at Happy Creek, where the engine halts and Bob is hailed as a hero, later cashing in as a local railroad legend.
