Prototype History 

History Story:On the night of April 29, 1900, engineer "Casey" Jones with
Sim Webb his fireman were listed out of Memphis on train #1 with Engine
382 and six cars southbound for Canton Mississippi.  Records indicate that
#382 pulled out one hour and thirty-five minutes late with the experienced
Casey at the throttle. He had very good engine,which he knew, a good fireman,
a light train and was really rolling 382, often over 75 MPH, and making up a
lot of time and actually setting a record. He was then on time for a meet with
train #2.  But the Illinois Central had a single track with passing sidings that had
to be cleared.  An air hose broke on the freight trying to clear the switch on a left
hand curve, leaving several cars on the main line.  Casey couldn't see them from
the engineer's right hand seat until his #382 came around the curve.  Casey told his
fireman to jump which he did, saving his life, and immediately threw 382 into reverse
 and staying at his post, rode #382 into the rear of the freight train, smashing the
caboose and a couple of cars.  The impact had slammed the throttle barinto his throat. 
He was carried one half mile to the depot and then died from his injuries.   Casey was
the only person killed in the wreck.  A few years later a song was written about
Casey and remains one of the top three railroad songs of all - time.
In 2014 Diamondhead International Small Scale Steamup exhibition, it had a
good performance and got a lot of praise.
