SERIOUS RAILWAY
ACCIDENT AVERTED


Especial to The Richmond Virglnian.y
LNNCHBERG, VA, Dec. GA Sc
rious railway accident was averted
early this morning on the Chesapeake
and Ohio railway here between pas
senEer train thirty-three, westbound
and an eastbound freight train, prob
able loss of life and property being
prevented by the fact that the pas
Senger train was running a few min
utes behind time AS it was, the To-
comotives came together head on Just
west Of the Southern junction before
the passenger train had commenced
to speed. and while the freight was
slowing down for the crossing
Had the accident happened a min
ute or two earlier IL would have been
with both trains running at full speed
in a dense fog, and portions of both
trains would almost certainly have
been precipitated into the James riv-
er.
The result Of the collision was that
the pilots of both engines were dam
aged slightly and the passenger train
delayed for four hours. One car in
the freight train was thrown off the
track but none of the passengers on
either of the trains were reported to
have been hurt or seriously shaken
up.
