Never been to the Casey Jones musuem. Lot of folklore associated with him as in many other historical figures, but he was known to be looking at the bottom of the bottle quite often, and by most accounts he was under the influence that fateful night. The "ripsaw" manuever that was supposed to take place is still something that occurs daily, even now. Especially now with the length that some of the freight trains are.
