Narrow Escape At Benalla Iron Railway Bridge
A near disaster occurred on Tuesday night when a passenger train crossed the Benalla iron bridge. Mr Miller Wilson, a passenger aboard, and a carriage traveler leapt clear as the train hopped the structure. Wilson fell about 16 feet onto soft ground, suffered a back strain and a cut lip but escaped fatal injury. He was taken to a nearby hospital for examination. The article notes late trains often stop on the bridge and urges safer clearance for approaching trains.
