A sighting of strange aerial activity by a railroad train crew in October 1958 is most definitely one of the most intriguing UFO accounts on record. Not least due to the fact the train they viewed the incident from was speeding along the tracks at the time, pulling no less than fifty-six train-cars behind them. Just to put that in perspective, that is a “more than half a mile of cars”. The incident would last over an hour and take place over many miles of Indiana railroad.

Hi Marcus really enjoyed all of your articles as I know from 30+ years of research that there is something very real going on , ignored or ridiculed by all media .
I write regarding the public admission of the uss Nimitz ufo account in 2004 and it’s public release in 2018 and the fact the pentagon has a Advanced Air Threat Aviation programme – 21million annually , one wonders why ? All revealed in Washington post account detailing radar and F18 camera footage .
In Australia I also wondered if you know of the very detailed Cecil McGann 1927 Fernvale incident related by mr bill Chalker – this incident told to Chalker by McGann ( very elderly ) involves huge eagle 4x normal size in a conversation with one another . My research re Betty Anderson ( fowler book ) and the very odd commonly seen New Mexico ( by nurse) shows a huge bird dropping below the craft .
Anyways there are good and very negative elements to this story ( Collins Elite experimentation under Jack
Hope to see Horace Drew Friday re binary code ( linda mouton Howe) and serving officers ( Usa ) decoding
Anyways all the best thanks again Don Opie
