Re: [CBQ] Re: 1958 C&S Wreck

["Russ Strodtz" <normansen@groundcontrol.us>]

Broomfield CO:

Death: 3 Train Service
Injury: 13 Passengers, 2 Railway-Express Messenger,
3 Train Service

Chugwater WY:

5 Train Service injured.

Walsenburg CO:

21 Injured (2 Train-Service, 1 Railway Post Clerk,
18 Passengers)

D&RGW freight, C&S running as passenger.

Why? No flag protection, failure properly to check
a train register. (See Utah Jct. in big wreck at
Boulder.) Essentially the D&RGW from Southern Jct to
Walsenburg did not pay any attention that the C&S
passenger was running behind them. While switching
there was no flagging because they did not note the
train register so as far as they saw it there was no
train involved. Guess there really was one there.
