There was one that I can really rememberhim telling me about. There was a accident involving "Wild Holt" if if recall right. There was a young fireman that died in it (name?) that kept saying that he couldn't wait to go home to Carl everytime they passed or changed trains but on this day while changing crews in Chama the young man said that he just wasn't wanting to go home yet. Carl was saddened when he heard and that conversation stuck in his memory.
I dig up some more here in the next week or so.
