yuck.

Just in time for Halloween.

Commuters on an AmTrak train en route from DC to NYC saw a headless body laying next to the tracks in Bristol, PA, this morning.

Police think he was hit by another train between 4 and 4:30 am. No info yet on whether they found the head.

Gross. Almost as bad as the two-year-old girl that got run over by a lawnmower two weeks ago.

I like to think of us as his inspiration, Els.

Hmmm...I wonder if that is why my train was late this morning...Bristol is only two stations before mine.

My only thought was, "Gee, wonder if I knew him/her."

(We occasionally get clients from Bucks County, and ours wander over the line quite a bit too. Nobody I talked to in the last couple of weeks was talking about trains, though.)
