Quick Witted Passenger Pre-
vents Disaster When Rail
road Switch Springs.

The springing of a switch over
which it was crossing nearly caused
a serious wreck of the Fairmont to-
fleetwood passenger train, due at
the Clarksburg passenger station at
IL O'Clock, Saturday morning at the
''Y'' in the western part of the local
Baltimore and Ohio yards. A quick
witted passenger however, pulled
the bell cord and brought the train
to a standstil before any damage
to amount to anything was done.
The train was backing into the
yards when the accident occurred
The rear passenger coach crossed to
the main track safely but the front
wheels of the next coach jumped of
and those of the third coach from
the rear took the wrong track. The
coaches were spreading apart and
the wheels of one or two had been
pulled from the rails when the pas
senger pulled the signal cord. He
happened to be sitting over the
trucks that were first drawn from
the rails and it was through his
presence of mind in signalling the
engineer that serious accident was
doubtless averted.
