Haunting Tale

I came across this years ago, and thought I should share it with you good folks.
It's a audio file and transcript of Wesley MacDonalds runaway train on the C.N. Railroad.
Listen to it and read the transcript at the same time. It's amazing he walked away from this bad incident..
I must have listened to it 100 times....

Dave didn't include a link, so I googled it and found this:

Holy crap, that's one heck of a story. I feel bad for Wesley, he almost got "railroaded" so to speak. What a mess that was to clean up. Jeese!
