Engineer  McGinnis,  bleeding,  stunned  and
blinded  by  blood  and  injuries,  showed  great
presence  of  mind  by  running  back  nearly  half
a mile  and  flagging  the  east-bound  passenger
train  which  was  only  five  minutes  behind  them.
The  wreck  occurred  just  around  a sharp  curve
and  the  passenger  train  would  have  crashed  into
it.  All  trains  were  delayed  about  six  hours.
