Awesome history Billy.. Appreciate u..God Bless
Very interesting story Spaguy. Thank you and cheers from Perth Australia
Thanks for watching Craig..
This is really neat! I live in Tennessee and I've never heard of this. My dad is from Old Hickory so I'm sure he would be interested to see this. Thanks for the cool story!
Good video,interesting Thank you
How sad and tragic. Thank you for telling the story. Tighten up and Lord bless.
Even though tragic this is very interesting history!
Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of that crash. I'll be out there tomorrow to have a look and see if I can find that historical marker. Thanks fir the video, very informative!
The locomotives involved in the crash were NC&STL G8a 4-6-0 ten wheelers, those being 281 and 282, both were built by the baldwin locomotive works in 1905
I was going to film a video myself soon but honestly I don’t think I could tell others what you haven’t except the long court proceedings afterwards. Great job
Thanks my friend you should do a video about the court proceedings.. Let me know other things you think I should film if you don't want to film them.. Thanks, Spa Guy
A video about the old baseball stadium with the whole area of Fort Negly would be cool if you ever got a chance. There's an old cemetery of the slaves who lost their lives building the fort in the north east corner I believe but one is there. I'm not sure if you're allowed in the old stadium without a filming permit but I've seen a few people's videos who gained access legally.
I have actually filmed there with my drone but have not put it out yet.. I will plan to edit it out and release it soon.. Thanks, Spa Guy
Thanks for the history, from australia
You are very welcome Jim.. Great to hear for you..
estou adorando estes videos
You forgot to mention that because of this disaster passenger cars on trains were made of steel instead of wood afterwards.
The impact both shattered and telescoped passenger cars and the damage was so bad that change was required.
😓😣I can’t imagine how terrifying that day was for those in the trains and for first responders.
May they RIP.
How sad..god bless them all ❤️😪
Yes Sir, nobody would know that, I also didn't know there was a minnisions plant where they put gun powder in things, I know there's an amunissions plant in Milum, not far from Crossroads and Lexington, my Mom's Dad, Uncle, and quite a few of her family worked there & when I was a kid playing outside my Grandparents house, some days the plant would set off bad amo, I could hear it booming & go inside to ask what was I hearing...a dangerous job. That round metal ball you looked at, I think it was a cannon ball, but not from Civil War times, my brother found a civil war cannon ball while plowing for a garden , he let the Cotton Patch Restaurant display it at Crossroads and he finally gave it to them since they have those reienactments of the battles...
Last note, about the Trains I recall my Moma telling me that's the way she went to Memphis and stayed with her 2 sisters and their husbands and would ride the train back to Lexington to see her parents and younger sister and all the rest of the family, then ride back to Memphis, she got a good job answering operator for South Central Bell, working that switch board, but I for many years thought she drove on the old hwy before I-40 and I traveled that one too, but, when she said she rode the train, I couldn't believe how much had changed in her life time, when she left home for Memphis, her folks didn't have nothing but a house no indoor plumbing nor running water, she really had a hard life, picking cotton, getting water from the well, sleeping 3-4 girls in one bed and so cold in the winter, their Moma would heat up an old iron and wrap it up and put it down by their feet & in the morning, she'd get them around the fire place and put chairs behind them then put a bunch of quilts over the chairs and keep them warm like that, she always said, they didn't have much, but they had love & they read by the Cole oil lamps, and often say, I never dreamed I'd ever have a house like that nor a car, refrigerator, she couldn't see how far she had come. Moma L got a stomach ulser and the Dr told her she could not have nothing but milk and rasien bread, they could hardly afford that, but, mom's wanted a piece so bad, MomaL would let the 4 girls share a piece & mom's always kept a loaf of raisen bread in the house as long as she lived, I would get her breakfast for her when she got up I'd toast the bread lightly and put a little butter on it and take it to her easy chair in the Den, LORD knows how I miss my Moma and my husband, Sorry I do go on too long, I'm going to do better and keep it short ... Thanks for the story Mr. Billy you take care 🇺🇸
So Sad,That's Horrible 😢😢
A Good History Lesson ,But So Many Lives Lost.It's Wonderful That People Went To Help, If In Fact They Did Help And Not Take Pitcures And Just Stand There And Look.
been right there!
It is a common mistake. This was actually the 2nd worst train wreck. The actual worst train wreck was the malbone street wreck that killed 102 people. One more then the 101 people that died in this tragedy.
I agree that is a common thought but you forgot or never heard about the 2 guys who were rubbernecking while in a horse and buggy and it crashed into a vegetable stand.. Both died at the scene as well as some damaged vegetation.. Putting the Nashville total at 103..
all of that wreak thanks to the Fed Gov runing the rail roads
