gineer on the Green Bay freight threw
his train on the siding and backed his
engine ana caboos down on the round
house track and stopped just over the
turntable at the coaling dock. de
surrendered his engine to the round
house crew and they were at work
coaling il up when all Of sudden ~
started back at lively pace across the
turn table and crashed into the mogul
The force Of the impact was so great
that it sent the big engine crashing
through the end of the house and down
into the ditch on the outside. Fortu-
nately nothing was broken on either
engine. The caboos was broken quite
badly but not beyond repair. The
wrecking crew was summoned and
they got to work raising the engine at
about four o'clock Friday and IL took
them all day to get it back on the
track.
II is thought that the throttle OF the
Green Bay freight leaked and allowed
steam enough TO get into the cylinder
TO start it up.
