Dutchman's Curve


This is the beginning (or the end, some might say) of Dutchman's Curve in west Nashville, where the worst train accident in United States History occurred July 19, 1918. It happened when the westbound Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis No. 4 train collided with the eastbound No. 1 killing somewhere in the neighborhood of 121 people and injuring many more. Those interested will find a detailed story about it by Mike Kilen, HERE.

Great picture, the shadows of the barren trees over the tracks is way cool.

Good blog and great link to the story from the paper by Mike Kilen.

Those look like kiddie train tracks. Awful story.
