At one time there was a link to ALL the ICC Railroad Accident Reports that
could be searched by year and by railroad. A Google search brings up a few
but not the full list that I am thinking of.
There were perhaps 100 reports relevant to the Q which certainly would have
included an incident which resulted in the death of an engineer. The ICC
reports
would be the fastest way to get the date and location. After the date and
location are determined I'd start contacting local history / genealogy
librarians in the
area to see what newspapers might be available digitally or in micofilm format
to get newspaper coverage, obituaries, etc..

Subject: engineer information
Hi
I was hoping someone in your organization could help me. My
gr-gr-grandfather, Edward P Sullivan was an engineer on the Kansas City to
Denver run and was killed in a train accident sometime around 1900. My
family has no other information on his death other than the approximate date
of 1900. Would you have this information or could you head me in the correct
direction?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance......Thomas Moulthrop
