Collinsville, Ohio, train wreck, October 23, 1909. Six people died and six were injured as the result of a collision between a Pennsylvania passenger and a freight train on an open switch at Collinsville, Ohio. The passenger train, southbound on the Chicago and Cincinnati division of the road, was booming through the village at about 60 miles an hour. The freight train had taken the siding to let it pass. Two blocks west of the station the rapidly running train struck the open switch and ran onto the siding. A terrific collision resulted, despite the fact that Engineer ELMER BROWN of the express train threw on the air brakes at once. His act doubtless saved the passengers, none of whom was killed. The collision wrecked both engines, destroyed many coal cars, and piled up the mail, express and baggage cars. The mail clerks who lost their lives were buried under the wreckage of their car. The smoker and coach were prevented from turning over by the fact that they leaned against Shollenbarger's grain elevator, adjoining the siding. All the passengers injured were in the smoker and none is seriously hurt. Photo from the Butler County Historical Society, Hamilton, Ohio.
