SMASH UP ON THE M.C.R.
[Welland Tribune May 21, 1897]
The Michigan Central had a wreck last Sunday morning about 4.30, at Cayuga, between an east bound and a west bound train. It happened on the crossing switch. As the west bound train was approaching the station the engineer lost control of his engine and crashed into the side of the east bound train, completely destroying 5 cars loaded with cotton and lumber. The wrecking crew was ordered from St. Thomas, and had both tracks clear in a few hours. Two of the fast passenger trains were delayed about three hours.
