i saw her body get smashed by the train. Her head was crushed like a melon. It was pretty grotesque. Blood and guts everywhere. I feel sorry for the family. I don’t know what they will have left to bury. You don’t look good after a million pounds of steel and another several hundred thousand pounds of human beings run over you. Sad.
