Fortunately Train Was Moving at a
Slow Rate of Speed or
Would Have Been a Seri
ous One. ___B
Southern passenger '
from Atlanta, due in Brunswick vBF
terday afternoon at -1:20 o'clock,
struck a split rail .inst opposite the
plant of the Standard Oil Company
in t'ae northern ■•section of the city,
lio engine and two cars jumping the
trick and doing consideranie dam
age. Fortunately no one was in
jured.
Tlie train, of course,' being In the
city limits, was moving along at a
very slow rate of speed when the
split switch at the north .end of the
north lead track was struck, and con
equently a .serious accident was
averted. Ifa<l the train ‘been moving
at a speed even as great as 25 or 30
mills an hour a number of lives
would no dou'tt have been lost and
serious damage would have been the
result.
Engineer Ross Bur,ray was at the
throttle and the train was in charge
of Conductnih Eidson, The train was
moving up slowly when the
plit switch was struck. As soon as
Engineer Bur gay realized what had
Happened he applied the brakes, but
not until the engine, the mail and
baggage car had jumped lie track.
The engine, No. 945, an unusually
heavy locomotive, was buried In the
lirt above the driving wheals, while
the tender was thrown cr< as ways
the track, it la thought that the
angino has been seriously damaged.
The two other cars jumpe:, the tiack
entirely and, like the engit . are now
lying almost completely tuned over.
Passengers were much frightened
by the wreck and they ru ed out to
see what had caused the t. able. The
conductor telephoned to t. o city for
hacks and several of them soon ar
rived and the pastenge;, nail, etc.,
was brought to the city.
The tracks cf the South .n as well
se the Coast lan are s .ii Clocked
and all trains both passenger and
freight, departing and a< iving in
the city since the accident, have keen
compelled to use the ol Southern
tracks around the city. The A., B.
& A. track was not blocked by the
wrecked engine and cat 3.
A wrecker from'-Jacks ivlllo will
arrive in the city early the; morning,
having been wire! for ye., orday, and
it will at once begin tho work of
righting the engine and ars, there
fore it is expected that :he tracks
will be clear some time during the
day.
There were a number of passen
gers on the train a:id it is fortunate
that th accident, nc- erred in the city
limits, • where the train was com
pelled to move slowly. Ordinarily,
the wreck would have b on a most,
serious one. The engineer and fire
man, as a-ell as other members of
the train crew, escaped without in
jury'.
