The passengers got out of the coaches and finally the engine was uncoupled.

At the time that these coaches fell there were only two or three passengers seated in them but these were not injured in the least Late last night wreckeI was sent from here to put the train back on the track and re- pair what damage had been done
 It took about nine hours to repair the damage and get the engine and coaches back on the track when the train continued on to Mobile.
