I live down here in south Texas along what use to be the Southern Pacific line. Anyway, there's a creek called Clear Creek that has an old steel bridge that goes over it about fifty feet above the water. All my life I've been told that back around the turn of the century (1900) that a freight train derailed on that bridge one stormy night and several cars fell off and into the water where there was quick sand, and that at least a couple of them sank out of sight in minutes taking their cargo down with them. I don't know how true the story is, but I do know for a fact that there is quick sand down there. <br /> <br />Anyone else got a story something like this ?.
