THE GHOST STATION

hey guys..hope u r all doing great :) well here is an interesting village called Begunkodor in Purulia district of West Bengal which remains closed for years as a ghost has haunted it..No train stops there and none works there ...Strange yet true ...The village has a railway station that remained closed for 42 years after rumors of it beinghaunted. According to the villagers, in 1967, a railway employee reported the sighting of a woman's ghost, and it was rumored that she had died in a railway accident. After a few weeks, the same railway employee mysteriously died and all the railway staff abandoned the station in fear.An employee said that railway employees had made up the story to avoid being posted there. In the late 1990s the villagers formed a committee and asked the officials to reopen the station. About a decade later, in August 2009, the railway station was reopened as a passenger train halt....Locals and railway workers say they lived in fear of a female phantom who frequented Begunkodor 260km (161 miles) from the state capital, Calcutta.

In 1967, a railway worker is said to have died days after he saw a "woman ghost" draped in a white sari.Officials say the story was made up to avoid postings at the remote station. still people fear a lot and so none boards train from here...
