It was tongue in cheek. Where were the train tracks in Carthage? I know Gordonsville had an active train not many years ago. Don’t know if it still runs. 

Cool! No problem. It ran from Gordonsville into South Carthage. The tracks ended under the old bridge. Most of it is a rails to trails walking trail now. Gordonsville still has rail service to Bonnell Aluminum.

Yeah I’m familiar with the walking trail along the road in South Carthage. I know there was a tragedy near there in the 40’s where an entire family was killed by a train.
