Hey y'all. I joined the Fayette list recently, looking for info about a train explosion at McDunn, Armstrong Creek, in 1934, to see if my grandfather Bert (William Birt) Woolwine was one of the injured. He had lost an arm in a railroad accident that we know nothing about. He was not one of the injured, but I do have the humongous newspaper pages of the accident reports on Dec 27, 28, 29, and 31. I received a clipping from the list that made the lookup possible. If anyone wants some of this info, I can make you a CD of the full pages and mail to you, or if you wait a day or two I can crop them out and make the files sizes more manageable. I also have a volunteer from the Fayette list who is going to transcribe them. Let me know if you have any interest. Here is a list from the first day's report, and this does change somewhat: Died: William Blankenship, 52 of Powellton, engineer of the train Delmar L. Oxley, 35, of Powellton, fireman James Hunter, of Lochgelly Ray Tarter Eddie Howlett Henry McMillion John Lowe Rome Walters Patrick Murphy, of Powellton William Turner Steve Kozma, Sr Everett Leach, of Kimberly Samuel Runyon Thomas Craft William Maynus, of Powellton Jess Persinger, of Eagle List of injured: The 24 still in the hospital are: Okie Litton, 54, Deepwater, fractured left arm, burns of face and hands, expected to die.
