tragedy at flat rock tunnel - charles j. adams iii lyrics

Loading...

if you look closely, you can see the west portal of the flat rock tunnel from the schuyllk!ll expressway opposite manayunk

look closely * maybe the ghosts of seven who died in a wreck there on october 24, 1892 will materialize

for whatever reason that day, the shamokin express was switched onto the northbound track, unaware that the ariel express was bearing down on the same track, the opposite direction

as the shamokin express entered thе tunnel, no one aboard knew that as it еmerged into daylight, it would meet the ariel head on

coal and coal dirt exploded into the air

flames sparked by hot coals spewing from the firebox spread

seven men died at the end of that flat rock tunnel that day

the explosion drew crowds who came to see what they could see and take what they could take

one railcar was filled with a quarter ton of spare ribs which spilled onto the roadbed and was purloined by the macabre onlookers
