St. Louis Light

The St. Louis Light or the St. Louis Ghost Train is the name of a paranormal phenomenon reported to be seen in Canada. The phenomenon has been featured on the television series Unsolved Mysteries.

The phenomenon entails reports of a strange light that moves up and down along an old but abandoned rail line at night, changing colours and varying in brightness. The rail line is located south of Prince Albert and north of St. Louis.

Several origin stories exist to explain light, including that it is a ghost train, or that it is the ghost of a drunk brakeman who lost his head to a passing train and now wanders up and down the tracks with a lantern attempting to find it. Non-paranormal explanations include possible refraction of car headlights.
