COLLISION OF GOODS TRAINS
DRIVER AND FIREMAN INJURED Sydney, October 30. Three goods trains were Involved in a collision near Colecllffe, on the South Coast line. The driver and fireman of a train travelling on the up line were seriously, injured when the engine turned over after crashing into trucks lying across the line. It appears that two trains collided on the down line, and the derailed trucks blocked the up line. No one was injured, but a few minutes later an up train crashed into the obstruction, and the driver, Laws, and the fireman, Foster, were released from the box of the engine with difficulty.
