Unfortunately he is no longer alive for me to ask about that accident. I know this is a long-shot, but if by any chance he is mentioned in that obit, say as pallbearer, I would really like to have a copy of it. Also, have you thought about asking for a copy of a news article if there is one. I would think it would have made the paper. I would really appreciate a copy of that also if there is a photo of the train yard. The last time I drove by there in the 90's, it had been completely redone, with the old yard office torn down and a tower built instead. I have wished many times that I had a photo of the old one. One of my memories as a child is going to pick my dad up at the freight yard when he had come in off a run or going with him to move his gear from one caboose to another and getting to play in the caboose. I would really appreciate your sending copies to me. I will send you my snail-mail address once you let me know. Thank you in advance. Lynn Raymond
