Ghost tracks

Over the years, railroad passengers, workers and others on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad tracks have heard, seen and felt things ... strange things, ghostly things. Those experiences are captured in the new book, Ghost Tracks, by Elizabeth A. Green and Suzy Garrison Meyer. The book’s release will be celebrated on Saturday with a ghost tour and book signing downtown. The tour, sponsored by the Victorian Aid Society, Animas Museum and D&SNG Railroad, will begin at 5:15 p.m. at the train depot, and will end at the front doors of Maria’s Bookshop, 960 Main Ave., in time for the 6:30 p.m. book event, where authors will discuss the eerie, creepy and haunting parts of the local history, such as this woman’s shoe, featured in the book.
