Wasn't it 99 not 97?

@Deathsjoker No worries, it was a stretch to expect people to know about a train that crashed 120 years ago. There was a chance that they'd heard a song based on the incident -- but that's still a bit of an ask. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOeksMXBN8s

@ochaos

I get that. I had a teacher in high school who played us the Gorden Lightfoot song "The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald" and then made us write what we heard in the song.

@Deathsjoker I heard a cover of that song a decade or so ago from an artist who also included the name and duty station (probably the wrong term) of everyone who went down with the ship at the end of the song -- really powerful.
