Good afternoon list, One of the little gems I found in the Sydney Morning Herald 13 Jan 1888 while looking for information to index into www.ryersonindex.org is this one. Serious Railway Accident at Gosford. --------------------- (By Telegraph) (From our own correspondent) ------------- GOSFORD, Thursday. An accident occurred on No. 3 contract of the Southern and Northern Junction Railway from the Hawkesbury to Gosford, yesterday, through the coupling on four trucks attached to an engine proceeding from Mullet Creek breaking, and the runaway trucks dashing into a train with workmen returning from Gosford. Five men were hurt. Their names are Dan Hisshian, who sustained a contusion of the knee and injury to the back; John Ferguson, injury to the back, Chas. Dabno, crushed foot; W Thompson, concussion of the spine and slight internal injury; Tmothy Lane, injury to the back. The men were all attended to by Dr. T Kendrick, of Gosford, and are progressing favourably.
