While I was working at GSMRR in 2022 I had the opportunity to be a member of the steam locomotive crew, along with my best friend/roommate. One night while I was still in training as a Steam Locomotive Hostler I was greasing the rods on 1702 when I had the feeling of being watched. I looked over my shoulder, and didn't see anyone (or anything). Shrugging my shoulders I went back to my work greasing the rods. I then felt the feeling of being watched again, and again I turned around to find nothing standing behind me. In the Shack was my coworker filling out some paperwork, I stepped into the shack and asked: "When you're alone with 02 do you ever have the feeling of being watched?" He responded: "all the time, the next time you have that feeling take a look up in the cab."
So I went back to the locomotive to continue preparing her for a busy day ahead. I once more got the feeling of being watched, I turned my head up to the cab, and saw a figure standing clearly outlined in the locomotive's cab. Not knowing who for sure the figure was, I decided to not ask any questions. The rest of my time working at GSMR I would refer to the ghost of 1702 as "Private Malone" in reference to the country song about a haunted corvette. Being that the locomotive was originally built for the United States Army, I figured the name was appropriate, this was not my only "paranormal" experience stay tuned for more haints, haunts, and spooks!
