I was in my car listening to 96.3fm 26/5/07 11am when news came on & abe saffrons son reavealed that his father did light the ghosttrain fire at lunapark on the 9/6/79 her father had a deal with harry seidler to close the park so they could build two towers on the prime real estate site plan since 1968 & she reavealed her father didnt mean to kill anyone which both had known all this time they killed innocent people that night. what really happened with guilt.Both abe & harry are now deceased & the 28th anniversary of the fire is next month. 9 people died & since then the park has opened & closed many times.....why?
