Lucky man survives after being run over by train
5 hours ago HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) — Talk about being lucky — a north Alabama man is alive after being run over by a train on Thursday afternoon. Huntsville Fire and Rescue officials said a train engineer spotted 61-year-old Arnold Romine lying across railroad ties. Witnesses said the conductor sounded the horn and tried to stop the train. Firefighters said by the time the coal train was stopped, 8 rail cars had passed over Romine's body. Miraculously, he suffered what appeared to be minor injuries. He was later treated and released at Huntsville Hospital. Its unclear why Romine was lying on the tracks |

Having worked for a freight line in the past, I find that story a little hard to believe. A loaded coal train doing 40 miles per hour would take a lot more than 8 cars to come to a complete stop.

Sounds like another case of poor journalism, someone needs to make sure the associated press does not end up like the Fox news network, and for god sake's people check the sources on these type of stories, it more likely to be one of two things, made up and passed around through the email or the guy got up and then laid back down after the train stopped. If it is "true" email me the actual "article" from the AP. give me a break people and stop being so silly.

The article states that by the time the train stopped eight cars had "passed over" his body, not run over his body. I'm not an expert on trains but I can pretty confidently assert that had he been across the tracks, he'd be dead.
