Four Cars Of Stone Wrecked
Monday morning while one of the P.R.R. local freights was putting some cars in on the Ligonier Valley Y, one of the cars caught in the point of a frog and threw four car loads of stone off of the track, wrecking them badly. The track was torn up and things mixed generally. The wreck crew from Derry cleaned up the debris after several hours work.
