I wrote a haloween story for everyone![:D] Enjoy! And tell me if you like it.[;)] July 8, 1955, Los Angeles, California- A Santa Fe Super Cheif was running late for the route to Chicago due to weather conditions. The rain was pouring like cats and dogs while lightning bolts came down from the sky. Around 11pm, the Super Cheif was given permission to slowly depart L.A. Union. The Conductor had a bad feeling that something bad was going to happen to the train. He told the passengers that he was sorry the train was seven hours behind schedule. Five miles from Riverside, he called in the dispatcher to check if the tracks were clear ahead. The dispatcher told him the tracks were fine and don't worry. Just then, he looked into the sky and saw a huge flash of lightning. As the train was coming into Riverside, he noticed something strange. The station was very dark. As the train approached nearer, he noticed there was wooden boareds over the windows. There were passengers on the platform however, but they were ghosts![:0] He alerted the engineer NOT to stop! "Go on! Something strange has happened! The passengers are ghosts!" He screamed. Minutes later, the Conductor figured what was going on. The train had traveled to the future! When the depots are abandon and the only passengers are 'ghosts' from the past[:(] "Were In the future!" Yelled the conductor to the dispatcher. [:(!] As they approached the next station, the engineer noticed something on the tracks. "Hey! Get off he tracks! [:0]" He screamed out of the cab window. At the last second, what ever it was was gone. "I thought it was a vehicle, but it wasn't" He thought to himself. The condcuctor gave the engineer the orders to stop the train in San Bernardino, where he could let the passengers out. When the train came to a hault, the only thing you heard was the screeach of the breaks, and the only thing you saw was a bright headlight from the locomotive and a dim blue/green light from one of the controls in the cab. After going into the sleeper, he opened the curtains of everyone's room to alert them they were at the final stop. He saw no one. All the passengers had somehow got off the train. But the train had not stopped since Los Angeles, and the Conductor saw the passengers in the cars AFTER leaving Los Angeles?[?][:0] He went and got back into the cab, and told the engineer to start the train. A dim light on the station platform illuminated the shiny sheel Santa Fe cars as they moved east. The Santa Fe Super Cheif was never seen again. [:0][:(] This story was inspired by visits to the old Riverside depot. When I was younger, I wondered what happened there? Why was the depot closed? Why were there boards over the window? Why was it so dark inside and so on. I thought the Santa Fe was a 'haunted railroad' or something[:(]
