Three Americans Die In Worst Denmark Crash In 50 Years
An AP report from Odense, Denmark details a railroad disaster that killed three Americans from Ohio and eight Danes as a passenger train rammed into the rear of another on a bridge. Victims include Joseph Nemesh, 57, and Mary Jane Nemesh, 50, of Cleveland and Alexander Kilbourne Young, 22, of Dayton. Eight Danes also died, and 33 people were injured, among them Gladys Schuman of New York and Lynn Northwood, 22, of Dayton. Rescue was hampered by diesel spills and the overpass location. The crash occurred after reduced visibility from heavy rain and a minor electrical fire on the lead train. The second engineer, C A Larsen, described seeing a red object ahead before braking.
