About thirty five feet of the retaining wall above the Delaware and Hudson tracks near Lookout Junction gave way at 1 PM yesterday. Tons of rock and dirt crashed onto the northbound track, 15 to 20 feet below, after days of heavy rain undermined the wall. Roadmaster Nugent moved in with a steam derrick and by nightfall the line was cleared. trains ran on the southbound track meantime. A separate cave in on the D and H line a mile south, caused by a powder mine mishap, dropped the southbound tracks inches and required five carloads of ashes to fill the gap.
