Wall Collapse Breaks Whitaker Bank and Tracks

A large section of the Whitaker bank wall in front of the railway area collapsed last evening around 7 15 PM, sending debris into the creek and taking down a substantial earth backing. The wall built by Paige Carey Co appears poorly mortared, with dry interior stones. earth behind the wall laden with mill cinders and an adjacent railroad track likely caused the failure under heavy freight train vibrations. Repairs and track reconstruction will begin soon, costing thousands and delaying tunnel service.
