State Park Projects
Are Being Planned

Three state park projects are
planned for Garrett and Allegany
counties. Bids already are in on
Cne job
The Maryland Department of
Public Improvements opened bids
for construction of a 10000 gallon
concrete reservoir in Deep Greek
Lake state park Lowest figure
was entered by Phoenix Construc-
ton corporation, for $500. Only
other bidder was w. F. Delauter
and Son, with S5,840.
The reservoir will be used to
supplement the present water
storage facilities. Water is OBJ
tanned from wells and stored in
reservoirs.
The increase in camping at the
two areas in the park, plus the
new wash house and concessions
building, calls for additional stor-
age reservoirs.
Bids are being asked again for
construction of bath house and
concessions building at New Ger
many park. These bids are due
November 7. This structure was up
for bidding this summer but fig
ures were said to be too high. Also
due the same day are bids for fur
nishing a water supply and sewage

that a wreck had occurred, and
then ran to the scene. Members of
the crew, aided by two tramps who
had been riding the train, we're try
ing desperately to free the drover,
who was in such agony that he
begged the men about him to hit
him in the head with pick and
put him out of his misery. He fl
nally was eXtricated and, at the
direction of Dr. J. Lee McCOmas,
the Company Doctor, who mean
time had been summoned, was
taken to the Oakland Hotel. Here
he was attended by all the doctors
available, but he died day or two
later of internal injuries.
Not long before his death vet
eran Passenger Conductor Charles
j. White (1868-1958), who was born
in the White Church area, told the
writer that the Flagman who went
back to protect his train that July
night SO long ago was afraid OF
ghosts. For that reason he did not
even go as far as No. 88 Bridge
whereas for proper protection he
should have crossed and gone a
considerable distance west of the
bridge. For many years the bridge
was of the truss design, with over
head framework which caused the
death of many brakemen and
others who happened to be stand
| ing on top of boxcars where they
wheels as the train passed over
the bridge. Suitable warning de-
vices were provided on both sides
of such bridges, of course, but oc-
casionally an accident occurred.
Some of the men who over the
years met death at this bridge we're
'trampS," type common many
years ago along the railroads, but
now practically if not completely
extinct Having no friends or rela-
tives, such victims of the bridge
sometimes were buried without
benefit of religion along the right
Of way. The writer recalls seeing
several graves at that point, many
years ago, each marked with rude
cross doubtless put there by the
burial party of section hands.
These lonely graves since have
boen completely covered by bal
last and waste material dumped
along the tracks b. ~cpeated main
tenance operations. For the super
stitious, it doubtless required but
little imagination to people the
spot with ghosts. The Flagman was
of that type, and although fully
aware of the danger to his train by
reason of short flag" he never
theless just could not force him
| self to cross that bridge at mid
night. The disastrous, fatal wreck
was the result.

A Trugic Freight Train
Wreck
Rv Robert 3. Garrett

It is just 81 years ago that a
tragic, fatal freight train wreck took
place on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad at the very spot, about
a mile west of Oakland, where a
spectacular wreck of two freight
trains occurred two or three years
ago. involving the unbelievable
total of about sc cars, but fortu-
nately, no injuries. When the writer
was a small boy, his father related
some of the details of the first
wreck, but the extraordinary un-
derlying cause of the collision
came to his attention only a few
years ago.
The writer's father, then a young
man of 81, was sitting at the open
window of his room at the Oakland
Hotel, where he was employed as
Superintendent of Grounds, the
time being close to midnight of
July %, 1882 He heard an east
bound freight train stop suddenly
as it approached Oakland, and the
Engineer at once sounded the
whistle signal for the Flagman to
go back and stop any train or en-
gine that might approach from the
rear. Meantime the other members
of the crew would locate and re-
pair the cause of the sudden stop
in all probability a burSted air
hose. The result of a bursting air
hose would be the immediate ap-
plication of the automatic airbrakes
on the entire train, and its conse-
quent halting until a new air hose
had been applied.
However, shortly after the train
had stopped, another eastbound
train was heard approaching on
the same track, and after the en-
gine had passed over No. 88 Bridge
over the Youghiogheny River, not
far from the rear of the stalled
train, it was tagged down by the
Flagman. The Engineer applied his
airbrakes and, as the expression
was, "blew for brakes" calling
upon his Brakemen to set addition
al hand brakes to stop the train.
In those days the airbrakes were
far from being as efficient as they
are today, and hand braking was
necessary in addition to the air.
brakes controlled by the Engineer.
There was not enough time to get
the train stopped completely, how
ever, and it plowed into the ca
boose of the standing train, wreck
ing caboose and several cars. The
engine itself NO 439 according to
the diary of the late Engineer j.
M. Buckner), turned partly over
as it left the rails, and slid down
the bank.
All the crew managed to escape
injury with the exception of a cat
tie drover. At that time it was Gus
tomary for a drover to accompany
a stock train, riding in the caboose
and attending to the needs of the
cattle at the various stops. This
poor fellow heard the approaching
train and jumped from the caboose,
but was caught under the side rod
of the engine, as it slid down the
bank, and was badly crushed.
The writer's father, who was
studying telegraphy at the time,
in the evenings, under the tutelage
of the two operators stationed at
the Hotel telegraph office, hesi-
tated only long enough to notify
the Train Dispatcher at Piedmont
Cumberland; Mrs Doll Baer, Fin

Senator Goldwater has devel-
oped a tremendous following among
the young voters of this country by
offering them hope for the future
instead of despair 1t is my opinion
that in 1864 we will arrive at the
crossroads of decision: whether to
fall down the continued path of
social reform and welfare programs
to the extent that all initiative and
desire are removed from the aver
age American citizen, or choose a
common sense return of govern

his final ride on a trolley this
coming Saturday. He rode the first
one to be run by overhead electric
lines that we're inaugurated in Bal
timore in 1890.
The trolleys are to be replaced
by buses. Mr.. Fox was 8 years old
in 1890 when his father took him
and his 7-year-old brother Harry
aboard a street car at North and
Guilfod avenues. They rode to the
lines end at Guilford avenue and
Fayette street
Mr.. Fox said he remembers his
father telling him at the time that
they were taking an inaugural day
ride on the first overhead power
trolley in the city Scheduled to
accompany him on his last troll
ley ride will be his 79-year-old wife
Of So years, Mary.
Actually he will take the trip
the day before street car service
officially ends. The last vehicle OF
the No 8 line will leave Towsor
at $50 a. m., November 3 and Mr.
Fox feels he must forego the last
run since it is so early in the morn.

Mr.. and Mrs. Fox are the par.
