Quote from the UFO report:
“This is currently a 5-page chronology of UFO
incidents and events for 1983. Our thanks for these chronologies must go to
Richard Hall (the original 1983 chronology from UFOE II), Dan Wilson (archive
researcher), and Jean Waskiewicz (online NICAP DBase [NSID]. You will note the
many foreign reports that we are now being able to access. Our special thanks
to Dan Wilson for getting those to us. As more come in, this page will be
updated. Previous chronologies (1947 to 1969) involved the expertise of two
other team members: William Wise (Project Blue Book Archive) and Brad Sparks
(Comprehensive Catalog of Project Blue Book Unknowns).

A diesel train of 14 cars was stalled by a huge UFO.
First seen as an enormous, blinding cloud of light over the city, it then flew
toward the train changing color from bright white to glowing orange. Seventy
passengers on board were awakened and screamed in terror. A yellow ray of light
struck the locomotive and stalled the engine. Engineer Sixto Churaz said that ‘I
tried to start up the engine, but it was dead. Fifteen minutes later the engine
suddenly came to life again as the object began to move away from the-train.’
The locomotive had just been through an overhaul and was found to be in perfect
condition. Experts from the University
