    There used to be some pics of the bridge and train as well as the original newspaper article on the wall at the old Fran's Diner on Hwy 39. Even had a map showing exactly where it was. MMMMMMMM, I miss Fran's.

    No, that's just how North Carolinians say it.

    Keith, the train isn't that hard to find. I was actually surprised that not more folks knew about it.
