Bill Barry has worked hard to commemorate the lives of the working-class people in Baltimore who started a labor movement that rippled through the United States in the late-19th Century.  Most of these railroad workers in Baltimore were Irish immigrants and Irish Americans.  Barry even got a special plaque placed in the shadow of one of the best ballparks in MLB.

This week, before emancipation, Appalachia provided pathways to freedom for enslaved people trying to escape bondage. A new project identifies more than two dozen previously unknown underground railroad sites. Also, the Fly Around Music & Arts Festival in North Carolina was inspired by the hard work that followed Hurricane Helene. And, a ballad about floods recorded a generation ago still provides solace for people today.You'll hear these stories and more, Inside Appalachia. 

On this West Virginia Morning, not much has been known about Appalachia's contributions to the Underground Railroad, but a Marshall University historian is documenting that history. The post The Underground Railroad’s Route Through Appalachia, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

Jerome Kern Musicals  The Railroad Hour  "Very Warm For May" June 4, 1951 NBC  The Railroad Hour "Sally" May 1, 1950 NBC 

The road trip crosses the Ohio River into Kentucky, and this stop is unlike any other we've made, because this legend has a real body count. On the eastern edge of Louisville, a massive railroad trestle spans Pope Lick Creek, and for roughly eighty years locals have said something lives under it.Half man, half goat, with short horns and a voice that isn't its own. The Pope Lick Monster doesn't chase you. He calls you, mimicking the voices of people you trust, luring trespassers out onto seven hundred and seventy feet of open steel with no walkway, no railing, and no escape when a freight train enters the span.In this episode I dig into the trestle's history and the three competing origin stories, from the escaped circus freak to the goat-sacrificing farmer, and trace the goatman's much older family tree through Maryland, Texas, and all the way back to the goat-legged wild gods of the ancient world. I cover the 1988 short film that put the monster on the national map and the fight it started with the railroad, and I walk carefully through the real, documented deaths on that bridge, including the young woman killed there in 2016 while visiting Louisville for a haunted attraction tour.You'll hear encounter accounts from the Floyds Fork bottoms, including teenagers who heard a voice calling one of them by name, a driver who watched a horned figure stand up on the rail at dusk, and a survivor who says she never decided to walk onto that trestle at all.Then the episode takes a turn most people don't expect, because Kentucky is quietly one of the best Sasquatch states in the country. I cover the famous Spottsville Monster case of 1975, encounter reports from Land Between the Lakes and the Red River Gorge, and a recent sighting from the same watershed as the trestle itself, and I make the case that the oldest layer of the Goatman legend may have started with something much more familiar to this show.I close with my verdict on what the Pope Lick Monster really is, whether it's supernatural, psychological, or the deadliest warning legend in America running in reverse.A serious note before you listen.The Pope Lick trestle is private railroad property and an active freight line, and real people, including teenagers, have died on it.Do not visit the trestle, do not climb the fence, and do not ever walk railroad tracks anywhere. This story works from the safe side of the fence, and that is the only place I want you enjoying it.Have you experienced a Bigfoot sighting, Sasquatch encounter, Dogman experience, UFO sighting, or any unexplained cryptid or paranormal event deep in the woods? We want to hear your story.Email your encounter to brian@paranormalworldproductions.com for a chance to be featured on a future episode of Backwoods Bigfoot Stories.Backwoods Bigfoot Stories is a paranormal storytelling podcast featuring real Bigfoot encounters, Sasquatch sightings, Dogman reports, cryptid experiences, and true scary stories from the backwoods.Follow the show and turn on automatic downloads so you never miss a chilling encounter from the forest.

10 years before the catastrophic train derailment and chemical disaster in East Palestine, Ohio, one of the deadliest rail disasters in North American history took place in the Canadian town of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec.On July 6, 2013, an unattended freight train that had been parked on the tracks overnight began to roll downhill and gather alarming speed as it careened towards the city center of Lac-Mégantic. The train, which was operated by Montreal, Maine, and Atlantic Railway and carrying over 2 million gallons of crude oil, derailed around 1:15 AM. The resulting explosions and fire killed 47 people and destroyed over 40 buildings, obliterating a large portion of the downtown area and prompting mass evacuations.In this special episode of Working People, we speak with a panel of survivors of the Lac-Mégantic rail disaster in Canada and the East Palestine rail disaster in the USA.Panelists include: Robert Bellefleur, a resident of Lac-Mégantic and spokesperson for the Lac-Mégantic Citizens' Coalition for Railroad Safety; Gilbert Carette, a resident of Lac-Mégantic and a member of the Lac-Mégantic Citizens' Coalition for Railroad Safety; Gilles Fluet, a resident of Lac-Mégantic who narrowly escaped the 2013 train crash and witnessed the derailment firsthand; Anne-Marie Saint-Cerny, award-winning writer, videographer, social and environmental justice activist, and author of Mégantic: A Deadly Mix of Oil, Rail, and Avarice; Jami Wallace, a displaced resident of East Palestine, Ohio, and founder of the Chemically Impacted Communities Coalition; Christina Siceloff, a Creek Ranger and resident of Beaver County, Pennsylvania, affected by the 2023 Norfolk Southern train derailment and chemical disaster.If you or members of your community are interested in attending or participating in TRNN's 2026 No More Sacrifice Zones conference, please contact us by emailing contact[at]therealnews[dot]com. Additional links/info: Lac-Mégantic Citizens' Coalition for Railroad Safety website and Facebook pageChemically Impacted Communities Coalition (CICC) Facebook pageRailroad Workers United website, Facebook page, and X pageAnne-Marie Saint-Cerny, Talonbooks, Mégantic: A Deadly Mix of Oil, Rail, and AvariceDimitri Lascaris, TRNN, “‘Bomb Train': Oil Execs Try to Blame Workers for Tragic Accident”Maximillian Alvarez, TRNN, “America's toxic future looks like East Palestine, Ohio, today”Maximillian Alvarez, Working People / TRNN, “Toxic Avengers: America's poisoned and abandoned communities must stand together or die”Credits: Pre-Production: Maximillian Alvarez, Dr. Nicole Fabricant, Fritz EdlerStudio Production: Maximillian AlvarezFrench-English Interpretation: Anne Lagacé DowsonVoice Acting: Ethan Cox, Daniel LemieuxAudio Post-Production: Jules Taylor, Alina NehlichMusic: Jules Taylor Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

From the explosion of AI data centers to the increasing number of toxic spills, explosions, and industrial disasters happening across the country, corporations and the government are turning the USA into one giant “sacrifice zone.” In “red” states and “blue” states, in rural areas and urban areas, poor and working people are suffering the toxic effects of a crisis that has resulted from decades of deregulation, corporate-capture of government, and the protection of private profits over the lives and health of the public.No one is coming to save us, and nothing is going to change unless residents of different sacrifice zones and poisoned communities, workers and unions on the frontlines of the industries poisoning us, environmental justice groups, community and faith organizations, scientists, journalists, and all others who have a stake in this fight start coming together, working together, and fighting back together. In this special panel discussion, recorded at the 2026 Railroad Workers United convention in Chicago, Illinois, we speak with a panel of guests who are part of a new coalition that is doing just that.Panelists include: Jeff Kurtz, a retired locomotive engineer, union officer, and Railroad Workers United member who also served as a state representative in the Iowa House of Representatives; Jami Wallace, a displaced resident of East Palestine, Ohio, and founder of the Chemically Impacted Communities Coalition (CICC); Dr. Nicole Fabricant, a professor of anthropology at Towson University and scholar-activist who has been working with chemically impacted communities in South Baltimore, Maryland, for 15 years; Scott Smith, independent testing expert and founder of the Blue Shirt Justice League; and Lesley Pacey, Senior Environmental Officer at the Government Accountability Project.Additional links/info: Railroad Workers United website, Facebook page, and X pageChemically Impacted Communities Coalition (CICC) Facebook pageBlue Shirt Justice League website and Facebook pageGovernment Accountability Project website, Facebook page, X page, Bluesky page, and InstagramCoal-Free Curtis Bay Facebook page and InstagramSouth Baltimore Community Land Trust website, X page, Facebook page, and InstagramNicole Fabricant, University of California Press, Fighting to Breathe: Race, Toxicity, and the Rise of Youth Activism in BaltimoreMaximillian Alvarez, TRNN, “America's toxic future looks like East Palestine, Ohio, today”Maximillian Alvarez, Working People / TRNN, “‘Let's unite!': Poisoned residents of America's sacrifice zones are banding together”Maximilian Alvarez, Working People / TRNN, “Corporations and the government are turning the USA into one giant ‘sacrifice zone'”Featured Music: Jules Taylor, Working People Theme SongCredits: Audio Post-Production: Jules TaylorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

Freight rail moves 40% of long-distance goods in the U.S., but the industry's biggest challenge isn't infrastructure, it's intelligence. In this episode of The Peggy Smedley Show, host Peggy Smedley sits down with V. Krishnan, industry advisor for Microsoft manufacturing & mobility, to explore how AI agents and realtime decision tools are reshaping the future of rail. They discuss: Why railroads are drowning in data but struggling to act on it How CSX used AI to transform customer experience The Rumo case study: cutting lookup times from 4 minutes to 3 seconds Fuel optimization and how AI can cut costs 3–7% without new infrastructure Weather analytics, workforce challenges, and the retiring knowledge crisis Why the next 10% of performance won't come from more track — it'll come from smarter decisions Whether you're in logistics, supply chain, or enterprise tech, this conversation is a must-listen. https://aka.ms/RumorailAI https://aka.ms/CSXrailAI

Freight railroads are using technology, service improvements and private investment to strengthen their competitive position in North American supply chains. In this Talking Transports podcast, Association of American Railroads President and CEO Ian Jefferies joins Bloomberg Intelligence’s senior transportation and logistics analyst Lee Klaskow to discuss how AI, predictive maintenance and automated inspection technologies are helping railroads achieve record safety levels while improving network efficiency. Jefferies explains why intermodal traffic is benefiting from tighter trucking capacity and how railroads are gaining share through improved service and lower transportation costs. He also discusses cross-border trade, regulatory modernization, autonomous rail operations and why rail remains well positioned to support future growth in manufacturing, chemicals, automotive production and housing-related demand.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hidden deep within the forests of southeastern Ohio lies the abandoned railroad town of Moonville, a place where more than two dozen people lost their lives along a deadly stretch of track. Today, the rails are gone, but visitors still report phantom lanterns, a headless brakeman, the scent of lavender drifting through the tunnel, and the sound of unseen footsteps charging through the darkness. Tonight, we journey into one of Appalachia's most haunted ghost towns to uncover the chilling legends of Moonville.

Dave talks about his son in law's guys weekend trip to the Cass Scenic Railroad. 

An early childhood memory of a family outing that shaped my teen and young adult hiking years. 

Greetings, Lowdowners—Deanna here!Last week we gave you the pesticide hearing story — Willie Nelson, Barbara Jordan, and a fight Hightower and his team won by building a movement before he ever needed the movie stars. This week, we're going back further. All the way back to where the whole populist tradition in this country actually started.Here's Hightower telling it: in the 1870s, four farmers in Lampasas, Texas, were getting squeezed out of existence. Railroads gouging them on getting crops to market. Bankers gouging them on their mortgages. So they did the only thing they could — they sat down around a kitchen table and started talking about it.That conversation didn't stay in Lampasas. It spread to neighboring counties, then across Texas, then into 43 states. It elected U.S. senators and members of Congress. It built cooperative banks and grain storage so farmers didn't have to sell at the bottom of the market just to survive. Historians call it the Populist Movement. Hightower calls it people figuring out they had to organize or get run over.We're telling you this story right now for a reason. Tonight, Hightower's on the main stage at the Texas Democratic Convention, introducing a candidate he's worked with for years: Clayton Tucker, who's running for the same office Hightower once held — Texas Agriculture Commissioner.Clayton's from Lampasas.No one planned that. Texas just keeps producing people who grow up with that kitchen table in their blood and decide to do something about the Powers That Be. Clayton's campaign is built around the same basic fight those four farmers were having: rural Texans getting run over by power they have no say in. Corporate data centers draining water and electricity from small towns that never got a say. Federal regulators sitting on tools Texas ranchers need right now to fight the New World Screwworm, leaving the state to fight it understaffed and underequipped while the threat spreads. Different villains, same basic math — somebody with more power than you, making decisions about your land and your livelihood from somewhere else.Almost a hundred and fifty years on, same county, new fights, same fight.This is the kind of connection-the-dots storytelling our paid subscribers get from us regularly — the history that explains the present, not just the outrage of the week. If you've been thinking about upgrading, this is a good week for it.Thanks for being in the fight with us, as always!Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

Bo French says he grew up in Midland, Texas, in a family tied to the oil and ranching industries, later worked in energy-related business, and took over the family company after his father died. He describes entering politics through a 2016 legislative run, later becoming Tarrant County Republican chair, and says he focused on fundraising, party unity, and boosting turnout in a county he saw as moving left. He says his run for the Texas Railroad Commission was driven by concern over new environmental rules that he believes hurt smaller oil and gas operators and raise costs for consumers and workers. French also discusses his comments on Islam and immigration, his view that newcomers should accept U.S. laws and culture, and says he won despite heavy opposition before facing a left-wing opponent in the general election.

The Pere Marquette docks in Arcadia, Michigan, once connected a small Lake Michigan village to a much larger world. In this episode of End of the Road in Michigan, we follow the story of the harbor, railroad and steamship network that helped shape Arcadia during the late 1800s and early 1900s.Through rare historic postcards and local history, we examine how the Pere Marquette Railroad, the Arcadia & Betsey River Railway and Great Lakes steamers worked together to move lumber, freight, passengers and manufactured goods through this busy harbor. What began as a lumber town grew into a transportation hub where trains met ships and local products reached markets across the Great Lakes region.You'll learn about Henry Starke's role in building Arcadia, the creation of the channel connecting Bar Lake to Lake Michigan, the rise of the Starke Land & Lumber Company, the devastating 1906 sawmill fire and the town's transition into furniture manufacturing. We also look at the steamers that regularly called at Arcadia's docks and the people whose daily lives revolved around the waterfront.This episode offers a fascinating look at a forgotten chapter of Michigan transportation history and reveals how one small harbor played an important role in the economic growth of Northwest Michigan.If you enjoy stories about Michigan history, Great Lakes shipping, railroads, steamships, lumber towns and vintage postcards, be sure to follow End of the Road in Michigan for more journeys into the state's past.#MichiganHistory #ArcadiaMichigan #PereMarquette #GreatLakesHistory #RailroadHistoryThe End of the Road in Michigan is a production of Thumbwind Publications

Angel Maturino Reséndiz killed at least fifteen people across six states, riding freight trains from Texas to Kentucky to California. He landed on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list. Holly Dunn was the only person across every one of his confirmed encounters who survived — and she survived with injuries that should have killed her.But this episode isn't about the Railroad Killer. It's about Chris Maier. The twenty-one-year-old boyfriend who was bound and kneeling beside railroad tracks in Lexington, Kentucky, about to die, and who used his last seconds to make a promise to the woman he loved. "Everything is going to be okay." He was right. It took years, a wired jaw, a shattered eye socket, a trial, and a two-hundred-yard crawl — but he was right.Holly Dunn built Holly's House, wrote a memoir called Sole Survivor, and turned Chris's five words into a life mission.

Two hundred yards. Two football fields. With a shattered jaw, a fractured eye socket, stab wounds, and lacerations across her face and head. Holly Dunn could not call for help — her jaw was destroyed. She could barely see. But she could make out the shape of a house in the distance, and she walked toward it because lying down on railroad tracks in Kentucky at twenty years old was not how her story was going to end.The man who left her there was Angel Maturino Reséndiz — the Railroad Killer, who traveled by freight train and killed at least fifteen people across six states.

Kyle Grieve discusses what bubbles are, why they form, and why they always feel different in real time. He'll examine historical patterns through frameworks from Insana, Kindleberger, and Howard Marks, and explain how investors can protect themselves by focusing on intrinsic value over narratives rather than speculation. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: (00:00:00) Intro (00:02:31) Why understanding bubbles is critical for long-term investor survival (00:04:31) How “this time is different” fuels every historical bubble (00:05:37) Why smart money, incentives, and career risk inflate bubbles (00:07:21) How investors rationalize bubbles using new, useless KPIs (00:08:56) The predictable emotional arc: skepticism, euphoria, panic, collapse (00:10:04) Why price detaches from intrinsic value during bubbles (00:12:28) Kindleberger's five stages: displacement, boom, revulsion, discredit (00:30:58) Lessons from tiny bubbles like plank roads and Beanie Babies (00:53:01) How human nature, not technology, causes recurring bubbles (01:08:44) How to protect portfolios from bubbles by focusing on value, not narratives Disclaimer: Slight discrepancies in the timestamps may occur due to podcast platform differences.

Gaius and Germanicus critique the SpaceX IPO, labeling it a grand "grift" comparable to the speculative railroad booms of the 1870s. They warn of a stupendous transfer of wealth from ordinary people to the elite, fueled by asset bubbles in AI and space energy, while national wealth inequality reaches levels reminiscent of pre-revolutionary France.

One might be forgiven for having assumed that Ken Paxton is the most offensive and least-qualified Republican nominee for statewide office in Texas this cycle, and there's certainly a strong arguement for that position. But, definitely in the running for that title is Bo French, the completely unqualified and even more unhinged nominee for Texas Railroad Commission.Luckily, the Democrats have fielded the direct opposite in the energy sector and oilfield expert - and Houston-area State Representative - Jon Rosenthal, who is by leaps and bounds more qualified for the job, and will be a compelling choice even for Republicans, provided they have even a limited understanding of the importance of the Texas energy industry and the vital role the Texas Railroad Commission plays in its proper management.Learn more about State Rep.

In "Short Lines, Big Impact: How Short Line Railroads Power America's Supply Chain" Joe Lynch and Joey Evans, Senior Director, Government Affairs & Business Development, TNW Corporation, discuss how Class III short line railroads leverage technology, sustainability, and first-and-last-mile service to keep American commerce moving. About Joey Evans Joey Evans is the Senior Director, Government Affairs & Business Development, TNW Corporation. He is a seasoned rail industry professional with over 20 years of experience, leading TNW's development and execution of government affairs and strategic growth initiatives. His role oversees legislative strategy, public funding efforts, real estate and industrial development projects, and supports acquisition and expansion activities aligned with the company's long-term objectives. Joey serves as President of the Texas Short Line and Regional Railroad Association (TSLRRA) and is a member of the TxDOT Freight Advisory Committee. His career spans various leadership roles across the short line railroad industry. Prior to his current position, he led Customer Success for TNW, encompassing customer service, revenue protection, and infrastructure technology. His journey began as a conductor and engineer, where hands-on experience laid the foundation for his transition into management. About TNW Corporation TNW Corporation owns and operates three short line railroads — TXNW Railway, TXGN Railway, and TXR Railway — along with multiple rail logistics facilities across Texas, serving as a strategic supply chain partner to industries, shippers, fleet managers, and Class I railroads. With more than 40 years of transportation logistics experience, TNW delivers the efficiency, reliability, and customer service that keep North American commerce moving. TXNW Railway, operating in the Texas Panhandle since 1982, is a One-Stop Supercenter and boasts the largest privately owned railcar storage capacity in the United States. TXGN Railway, also a One-Stop Supercenter, has served central Texas since 1992, operating approximately 67 miles of storage and loop track with Union Pacific interchange. TXR Railway, based in Brownwood, serves the Camp Bowie Industrial Area and interchanges with BNSF Railroad. TNW's full suite of services includes rapid interchange, transloading, railcar storage, repair, cleaning, scrapping, warehousing, and rail-served industrial development. Key Takeaways: Short Lines, Big Impact: How Short Line Railroads Power America's Supply Chain In "Short Lines, Big Impact: How Short Line Railroads Power America's Supply Chain" Joe Lynch and Joey Evans, Senior Director, Government Affairs & Business Development, TNW Corporation, discuss how Class III short line railroads leverage technology, sustainability, and first-and-last-mile service to keep American commerce moving. Revenue, Not Track Length, Defines Railroad Classes: Railroad classification is strictly determined by annual revenue, not physical distance. Class I railroads (the "interstates" like BNSF and UP) exceed $1 billion in annual revenue, Class II regional railroads fall between $1 billion and $47 million, and Class III short lines—where TNW Corporation operates—fall below $47 million. Short Lines Serve as the "First and Last Mile" for Rural America: While Class I railroads excel at long-distance freight movement, North America's 615 short line railroads provide essential first- and last-mile service to industrial parks and rural communities. Operating in smaller towns (often under 15,000 people), short lines keep vital agricultural, manufacturing, and petrochemical hubs connected to the national rail network. Lowering the Barrier to Entry with Truck-to-Rail Conversions: Because one railcar holds the equivalent capacity of four trucks (4:1 ratio), TNW launched a dedicated logistics and transloading business. This allows smaller regional shippers within a 50-to-100-mile radius to enjoy the economic benefits of rail by breaking bulk rail loads down into local trucks, without requiring a massive capital investment in dedicated track infrastructure. High-Volume Commodities and Major Public-Private Infrastructure Investments: Short lines primarily handle heavy, bulk commodities like petrochemicals, plastics, lumber, agricultural yields, and construction aggregates (rock). To support these loads, short lines reinvest a massive 33% to 50% of their annual revenue into infrastructure, a timeline accelerated by federal CRISI (Consolidated Rail Infrastructure Safety Improvement) grants to expand track fluidity. Transitioning from Rail's Historic "Black Hole" to High-Tech Visibility: Spurred by rising post-COVID consumer expectations (the "Amazon experience"), TNW developed a proprietary digital portal called My TNW. This tool eliminates the historic visibility "black hole" of rail shipping by providing customers with complete data transparency, allowing them to track cars across both TNW property and intersecting Class I networks. Embracing AI and Autonomous Infrastructure Safety: The rail industry is heavily adopting AI, autonomous railcars, and automated track inspection tools. These automated systems travel the lines to instantly pinpoint structural micro-cracks, gauge misalignments, or railcar defects. Removing the human error factor from these tedious inspections helped the rail sector chart its safest operational year in its 200-year history in 2025. Meeting Corporate ESG Targets Through "Clean and Green" Operations: Rail remains one of the most inherently sustainable modes of land transportation, moving a ton of freight roughly 500 miles on a single gallon of fuel. Beyond fuel efficiency, TNW helps shippers meet strict corporate environmental goals by certifying all properties under Operation Clean Sweep, which enforces strict handling frameworks to prevent plastic pellets and commodities from spilling into local ecosystems.

Florida produced 242 million boxes of oranges in 2003. This year, the USDA is forecasting 12 million... a decline of more than 95% in less than a generation. Jacob sits down with journalist Alexander Sammon, who wrote a definitive autopsy of the Florida orange industry, to understand how disease, globalization, and real estate swallowed one of America's most iconic crops.

For two months in the summer of 1972, a club-wielding, hair-covered creature stalked the railroad tracks of Defiance, Ohio — and the local police took it seriously enough to open an official file.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources and full transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/WerewolfCentralAUDIOBOOK: “The Black Eyed Kids” by G. Michael Vasey: https://amzn.to/4fIg2vWFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: It's one of the most gruesome ways movie and television villains dispose of their victims… the acid bath. The body being tossed in a tub, barrel, or bin, slowly dissolving into soup – leaving no evidence behind. But the truth of acid baths is far more gruesome – even more so those who choose to use the method to get rid of a body. (Acid Bath Horrors) *** Defiance, Ohio was the location for one of the best true werewolf stories most people never talk about. (Welcome to Werewolf Central) *** If you're looking for some creepy places to visit this Halloween season, you can't get much creepier than cemeteries and graveyards. I'll share some of the most haunted ones that you might want to check out if you have ice in your veins. (The World's Most Haunted Graveyards) *** The scenery may be beautiful when driving this road, but locals have nicknamed it la carretera de la muerte (the highway of death). We'll look at Mexico's La Rumorosa Highway. (The La Rumorosa Hauntings) *** Many considered Edward Rulloff to be a genius – a man ahead of his time. Others had quite the opposite opinion of him, thinking him a fraud or a conman. But nobody expected they would also be adding the word “killer” to his description.

The Railroad House Inn celebrated its bicentennial in 2023. Through those 200 years, the inn has witnessed a lot of history in Marietta, Pennsylvania. The oldest continuously operated bar in all of Lancaster County, Shank's Tavern, is also in Marietta. Both of these historic locations are reputedly haunted. Join us for the history and hauntings of the Railroad House Inn and Shank's Tavern. The Moment in Oddity features an arrow injury saving a woman's life. Our location was suggested by listener Kay Eberhart.
