Train Hit Car At Crossing Signals Fail At Night
A train struck an automobile at a crossing where signals were not working. The train halted, the engineer refused to identify himself, and left. A passenger in the car, a railroad official, also did not identify. A young girl near the crossing had recently died, prompting editorials about safety. The scene shows a close parked train blocking a damaged sidewalk used by children and adults. Questions arise about track circuits and signal activation at the crossing. Obituary notes Conrad Clark Kaiser, Cedar Rapids resident and craftsman, died Tuesday. Memorial services will be held in Turner Chapel.
