Just outside Geneva, New York, a lonely railroad bridge once spanned a deep ravine, on Thanksgiving Day, something strange was seen there. In 1902, the crew of a passing train reported a ghostly white figure waving frantically near Marsh Bridge, followed by a piercing scream that echoed through the valley. The apparition vanished as quickly as it appeared… but why Thanksgiving?
This chilling encounter has been linked to a devastating 1873 train wreck that claimed multiple lives when the bridge collapsed beneath a speeding locomotive. Some believe the spirit is that of a lost railroad worker returning each year to warn others before tragedy strikes again.
