There have never been *any* suggestions that Casey Jones drank alcohol--not from his employers, from his associates, his family, or any other source. From all accounts, it is doubtful that he even drank alcohol to celebrate special occasions. <br /> <br />On that final run, many assume that Jones was suffering from fatigue. However, his fireman--Sim Webb--indicated that Jones was alert and lively, enjoying the challenge of making up the lost time on the southbound run. <br /> <br />It is unclear whether Jones was a coffee drinker, but if so, that would have been the only stimulant he was likely to have taken before his final southbound trip on the New Orleans Special.
