The ghostly light in NC

My friend and I went to the ghost lanern nearstokes NC. We pulled into the secluded path only to find nothing there at first. We then waited another five minutes and flashed our car lights. Instantly a red light flashed back. The light got nearer and then farther. When the light came nearer it changed to a white color. We were fascinated with this until the light flashed on the back of the car and scared my friend to death. As I was told, the legend is that there were railroad tracks coming through there, and the signalman somehow lost his head. He has signaled ever since in search of his head. The legend also says that if you use profanity in his presence he will hsow up at your home and kill you. But its only a legend right?

How it changed my life:

it made a believer that there are ghosts in existence in the world.

What did the signal man look like?? You have to be very descriptive otherwise the message of the story will not
be sent to the readers. OK??

Date: 5/15/2000 6:53:00 AM    I have heard that same story my whole life in NC.
Date: 6/13/2000 8:21:00 PM    I am 48 years old now. I live that Maco all of my life, about 100 feet where the railroad tracks crosses the road. My grandmother lived across the tracks from us. She was born in 1881 and died in 1967 that the age of 86 and live at Maco all of her live beside the railroad tracks. She has told us about the story of Joe Baldwin many times. She said that there was a light that came down the tracks that Maco, until it just about got to the highway and it would disappeared, and it would reappeared again down that the railroad bridged and start coming down the tracks again. My grandmother also said that her father, which is my great-grandfather, who work that the train station in Maco would see a light coming down the tracks, and would think it was train coming and would start flaging the train with his latteren so the would stopped, so passagers could get onboard and there would no train coming, just a light coming down the tracks. She also said that the light disappeared when they re-work the railroad bridged in 1935. After that the light was gone.
As a boy and as a grown man, I have never seen anything on this railroad, such as a strange light or lights or a ghost that the Maco tracks. My father, mother and two brothers and any of our friends that I grew up with in the community has
seen NOTHING. Donald Mintz
