BURSTING OF THE BOILER OF A LOCOMOTIVE AT NEW-
CASTLE-UPON-TYNE.—On Sunday afternoon, shortly be-
fore -two o'clock, the boiler of an engine attached to the
two o'clock train, just about to start for Tynemouth,
exploded with terrific violence, bursting through the
roof of the station, and causing considerable damage.
The engineman and stoker, who were on the footboard
of the engine, escaped with slight injuries ; but another
engineman, who was standing beside them in conversa-
tion, was so much injured that his life was considered
in danger. Two children, who were standing on the
platform, not far from the engine, were scalded severely.
It is not known how the accident occurred. The engine
had just undergone a thorough repair.
