On certain nights, on Stockwell road, near the post office a train whistle can be heard approaching from the south. A ghostly steam locomotive appears pulling a train load of soldiers it passes through on it's way toward Lafayette. Only to vanish at the curve in the railway at crane station. For you see, during the civil war that train had been going to the Union army camp at Lafayette, only to derail at the crane station curve. Today if you go to Greenbush Cemetery in you can find the graves of the soldiers killed in the accident buried right next to confederate soldiers. For Lafayette wasn't a normal army base, it was a Prisoner of war camp.
