Two accidents combined to make the
disaster. The first was the breaking
down of a freight train on the north
bound track on which the excursion
train should have proceeded after
leaving Chicago Weights, and the other
was the breaking of a coupling on n
second freight train. Because the first
train had blocked the rightfui track.
the excursion train switched to the
southbound track to run for four miles
until 1t should have passed the station
OF Glenwood just north OF Chicago
Heights. AS IT tore along the track
al the rate of forty miles an hour. it
rounded a full curve and came upon
the second train. which was backing
up on the southbound track.
