This Day in History...

oooopsThe great train wreck of 1918 happened on this day in history...
The Great train wreck of 1918 occurred on July 9, 1918, in Nashville, Tennessee when two passenger trains collided head-on. The collision killed 101 people and injured 171, making it one of the deadliest rail accidents in United States history.

Interesting as that is, I find it a little more interesting as it is about 1.25 miles from my house and I run by it on our new greenway...
