The story
One of the cemetery's best-known tales belongs to James Ryan, buried here, who claimed to be a Kelly gang member who escaped Glenrowan and bore scarred, branded initials as proof. He was killed when a coal train decapitated him on the line into Ipswich, and Queensland Rail workers used to joke that Ned Kelly's headless ghost walked the track.
