TRAIN CRASH IS LAID
TO REMOVAL OF RAIL
Deliberate Tampering With Track
Blamed for Memphis Spe.
cial Wreck.
Fly the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press
A passenger train wreck on the
Southern Railway near Loudon. Tenn,
November 10 was due to deliberate
and malicious tampering with the
railroads track. safety inspectors OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission
have determined.
One person was killed and five we're
injured when the Memphis Special
left the rails near Loudon and went
over an embankment.
The subsequent inspection of the
tracks disclosed. the report today
said that a single rail on a curve
had been dislocated. Spikes had been
pulled out from . or 10 ties and the
rail end pushed inward and held by
respiklnS.
This left space Of : inches at
the rail gap, which was more than
sufficient to throw the engine and
the following coaches into the ditch.
Evidence that the operation had
been performed by an experienced
railroad man was clear. the report
said. because the dislocation of the
rail was done with sufficient care to
leave undisturbed the electrical con
nectiOn. Thus the block signals and
the automatic train control system re-
Gently installed by the Southern were
held in clear position and gave no
warning of the danger.
