    1. RE: [VAFRANKL] Danville Train Wreck
    2. Linda Jo Sheahan

    3. Here's another train wreck in Danville - http://www.talkeetna.com/Reviews/Old97/Old97.html "The Old 97, a Southern Railway train enroute to Spencer, N.C., derailed at Stillhouse Trestle near Danville, Virginia, on September 27, 1903, killing 11. This photograph was taken from the original glass negative and was copyrighted by the Williams Studio of Danville in 1960." I still seem to remember more pictures about one in Southern Franklin County, I just can't find them. -----Original Message----- From: Linda Jo Sheahan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, April 25, 2005 5:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [VAFRANKL] Circus Train Wreck Yes, I did read about it, but I can't remember where. I'll look for it later today. Linda Jo Groton, MA -----Original Message----- From: Truman Adkins [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2005 8:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [VAFRANKL] Circus Train Wreck The discussion about the Henry Post Office got me to thinking about a story my father told me 30 years ago. He remembered in the 1920's a circus train wrecked between Henry and Prillaman's Switch. An Elephant was killed and buried beside the tracks. Anyone familiar with this story?
