collision between train and ship,
such as is reported from Sunderland

The mishap occurred early on a re-

20 cars and an engine used in con.

which are being carried out at the
port, was proceeding along track,
the engine pushing the cars in front

the train should have travelled, but

on the engine jumped off just before
