Lex Anteinternet: Monday, August 30, 1943. The Lackawanna Limited wreck

Lex Anteinternet: Monday, August 30, 1943. Hornets

The Lackawanna Limited wreck occurred when a Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad passenger train, the New York-Buffalo Lackawanna Limited collided with a freight train. Twenty-seven people were killed in the collision, and about twice that number injured, many from steam that poured into the railroad cars.
