The Cutlass lifesaver A 1967 Cutlass Oldsmobile station wagon saved my life. Coming home very late one night on a country road in Scotland County, my headlights beamed through the bottom of a train that had parked, in the middle of the night, across the road. There were no train lights blinking, no warning signals, no forewarning of what was parked ahead of me on that dark country road. By the time I realized it was a train, I slammed on my brakes and skidded straight into it. Cars back then were built with solid metal, and the front of that Oldsmobile took the train on like a heavyweight. I was hurt, knocked unconscious, but recovered completely. And the Cutlass station wagon was totaled, but served in the highest possible way for me. Janeen Lee, Stantonsburg, Pitt & Greene EMC |
