Engineer Killed Patrick F. Hughes of Altoona, one of the best known engineers in the service of the Pennsylvania railroad and the last of a family of railroaders met his death while in the performance of his duty at 12:05 Sunday afternoon near the Fourth street bridge. Mr. Hughes who was a yard engineer was taking his engine, No. 1,507, down through the yard at the time mentioned and had a clear track when he passed the last signal. Just after he passed the Fourth street bridge, his engine collided with a car that had been shifted off the siding for the Hoster Brewing company, and which had not entirely cleared the main track on which his engine was running. The top of the car struck the cab of the engine and tore it from the boiler and dropped it against the tank. Mr. Hughes was caught under the cab and made an effort to shut his engine off. While he was thus engaged, the wrecked cab caught on a signal pole and was stripped off the engine and Mr. Hughes was thrown head first on a picket fence, his skull being fractured by the fall. He only lived a few minutes after the accident and never regained consciousness. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
