ASIATIC CARGO ON ITS WAY EAST
Train of 20 Cars Passes Through Consigned to New York Under Seal
Accident is Lucky
What might have developed into a serious derailment was luckily avoided Wednesday near Falais when train No. 2 passed over a break beam which had dropped from a freight train preceeding it, and fell in the center of the track. AS it was the steam and air connections of one of the coaches were broken so that the car had to be taken out and attached to the rear of the train.

What is

Sandy roads- we'd suggest 4WD as a precaution. There's not alot here- if you didn't know where to stop, you'd sail right by.
