Dixie Flyer Wrecks
AT Winnings Thursday
Engine and Several Coaches
Are Turned Over When
Train Leaves Track

On Thursday morning about Z o.
clock. the South Bound Dixie Flyer
on the W. & A. was derailed, just
north of Winnings station.
The engine and tender with Bag
gage. mail and express cars left the
track and plunged down a fill, while
broken rails did much damage to the
coaches.
Engineer Harris and his fireman
we're thrown to one side of the wreck
age which accounts for their escape
from instant death, and while the
fireman was seriously injured, Mr..
Harris had only few cuts and
bruises.
The mail clerk also was injured,
but apparently not seriously, and
from the looks of the wrecked cars
next morning the escape of others
was miraculous.
One broken rail had pierced the
floor of the day coach and went on
I'D through the roof of the car IN
iuring no one.
Trains were promptly detoured
over the Southern Railway until the
tracks were cleared.
