Ghost Light

Have you heard about the St. Louis light? This light is from an ghost train that ran on the North Canadian Railroad. The tracks were riped out in 1954 and it is a usually a party spot for local teenagers. The small town of St. Louis is south of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan.


In the early days of the 1900’s, St. Louis was a busy town with grain elevators and stores in 1954 their town was shut down and there town turned into a ghost town. I went to the town to see if this light did actually exist. What I found it was shocking. I showed up at the abandoned train tracks at last light and parked in front of no trespassing logs.

It was getting late and I was ready to leave when all of the sudden there was a bright flash of light. It scared me so much that I smashed my head on the roof of my car. The light was there and I was in shock that the light was there. It was the first time that I witness. I asked the locals how long the light been around and a farmer that farms the land around says he seen the light ever night he was farming out in the field he been farming it for 45 year!. The light has been here for along time no one knows how long but its been here but I likely was since the tracks were removed. Here a picture of the light.
