Loose Rail Blamed After WP Derailment
A ballast crew will follow the track-laying team to fill in ties with rock and gravel after a Western Pacific derailed near Oaklane Jinole. Engineer L L Seyferth said the train was at 45 mph when he braked hard. No serious injuries. 100 passengers continued to Oakland. Damages estimated at 25,000 to trackbed, 15,000 to derailed Zephyr coaches, 10,000 in repairs. Seyferth, 58, had previously been at controls when two Hayward youths were killed at a trestle in July. Police and sheriff patrols logged extensive overtime around the scene. Photographers filmed the scene for Fox Newsreel. Minor injuries were reported among several dining car staff and other passengers.
