occurred on the Colorado Central line OF
the Union Pacific railroad at Beaver
Brock Sunday morning. twenty three
people were injured, none, however

a curve. When they were started the
sudden jerk and the reaction in pulling
the train into straight line caused the
first passenger coach back of the baggage
car. which was directly on the curve, tc
leave the track 1t rolled on its side,
dragging with it the coach Just behind,
which, in turn, partly drew third coach
from the track, but did not turn it over,
as had been the case with the first two
passenger cars.
