Four men Henry Hildebrand Frank Hoffmeier Ira McClellan and Ralph Rutter were indicted by the district grand jury for manslaughter and neglect of duty in failing to observe block signal lights on the Baltimore and Ohio line during the December 2 1906 Terra Cotta Washington disaster. The wreck killed 43 and injured 63 as train 2120 collided with an excursion train near Takoma.
