    A nominee for this year's Darwin Awards, irony division.
    A bunch of ghost hunters in North Carolina wandered out to a trestle at 2 a.m. to find a "ghost train" -- one that supposedly appears there on the anniversary of its crash in 1891. Well, someone forgot to mention that ACTUAL trains still roll down these tracks. This time it caught up to the group 150 feet from the end of the bridge.
    One of the hunters was killed, but the rest managed to escape. I wonder if that would make the blooper reel of an episode of "Ghost Hunters International"?
