I live near the site of the wreck. Every time I pass by the area where the train wreck occurred, I think about those who died that fateful day.

God I live just 45 minutes south of Nashville. This will be something I would want to see.

"Dutchman's Curve, Nashville's Story" will not premier on July 9th 2008. Production of the film hastemporarily halted so we can fully research new information we recently uncovered.The delayed release time will be announced later. This postponement will give us timeto better understand the events of July 1918 and portray an accurate account of the worsttrain wreck in American railroad history.Betsy Thorpe
