Trains collision near downtown station due to signaling
Trains were held after a mishap when steel piers were placed so they did not touch both rails. If contact had occurred, block signals would warn trains to stop. R. F. Koepp, night chief dispatcher, said the Twin Cities 400 was close behind another train on a parallel track and could not be signalled in time before colliding with the pile of iron. Each train then continued to the terminal four miles away after brief delays.
