Tale of the Haunted Tracks!

(Pleasant Gap, PA)
I remember growing up I was always told this story of a car accident on a set of railroad tracks not far from where I grew up.
It starts out about a train hitting a vehicle that had broken down with 3 people and a dog on the train tracks outside of McElhatten, PA, on Pine Mountain Road. Now at night if you go out there and pretend to brake down on the tracks you will be pushed of the tracks. When I was old enough to drive I had to check this out, so me and some buddys put baby powder on the back of my car and went out and stalled the car on the tracks and were pushed off the tracks. I was so spooked out that I started the car back up and sped out of there when we got into town we stopped at a gas station and there were 3 sets of hand prints and paw prints from a dog on the back of my car. I haven't been back that way ever since.
