x The east bound. passenger train
on the 44iinois Central due in am
chester at 1850 p M, had q narrow b
escape from running into a switch
in which had been lodged break
beam and connecting rods of a
freight car, on Friday evening. Par
ties standing on the passenger de Il
pot platform noticed that the loaded
coal cars were being ruthlessly pull
ed over an obstruction at the switch. Y
The passenger train was stopped
before reaching the switch and af--#
ter about a half hours work the
train men had the track cleared. y
Had the engine on the passenger 6
train struck the obstruction, the
chances are that serious accident
would have occurred.
