Rittman Ohio is a little out of the way place on the borders of Wayne and Medina counties. It has a population of 6,491. This town truly has a secret. It is the home to a ghastly train wreck with ghostly remnants. However, most people will never know because even though the tale is well known around the area many go looking in the wrong place.

Statesville North Carolina began life as far back as 1753 when settlers from Pennsylvania settled there for its fertile farmland. It was dubbed States Ville in 1789 before being changed to Statesville in 1800. Much like Rittman Ohio, it became a bustling railroad town, and also like Rittman, it has its own train wreck story to share.
