For the first time in fifty long years the United States won the gold medal Sunday in the four-man bobsled world championships held in Lake Placid, NY. Piloting a jet-black sled nicknamed, "The Night Train," Steve Holcomb led the U.S. to its first four-man bobsled world championship since Art Tyler piloted the victorious sled in 1959 at St. Moritz, Switzerland. Just a week early Holcomb had piloted the United States to the world championship in the two-man sled, ending a twelve year drought.
