I had an unusual experience about five years ago, sometime
in 1999. I was working a late shift and took the subway
train home, which I did all the time, from Milton Station
through to New Grange. The journey takes about half an hour
and travels beneath the river Denn before reaching New
Grange, my Grandad told me that the train also passes under
St. Andrew's Cemetery too.
On the train home I 'd seen
something that I've been unable to explain. As I was
waiting for my train to arrive at the platform, I'm sure I
saw a figure standing on the tracks in the shadow of the
mouth of the tunnel, the 'apparition' was only there for a
short period of time before fading into the darkness behind
it, it looked more like a silhouette of someone real.
I
thought that maybe it was a track repair man or someone who
worked at the station, I couldn't make out any features but
that's what spooked me, I never saw a face.
My train had
arrived and I'd put the sighting out of my head thinking
there was obviously some rational explanation, as any
sceptic would in seeing something they can't quite explain.
During my journey, the train had stopped to a halt in the
dark of the tunnel and the lights went out for several
minutes. It was very unsettling and claustrophobic. The
lights flickered back on, the train set off again. I still
take the subway and have never seen anything unusual since,
although there have been sightings of strange 'lights' in
the tunnels and apparitions on the carriages!
