- Chicago & Shore South rail crash...
- Monday, Jan 18 1993, approx. 9:37am
- Two C&SS RR Commuter trains sideswiped each other at the gauntlet
- bridge in Gary, IN
- There were numerous injurys and 7 deaths. According to local reports
- (Gary Fire Department employee) the front cars of each train appeared
- to have been cut open with a razor blade. As of today (1/22/93) I
- have not heard any conclusive reports from the NTSB or C&SSRR Offices
-
- Does anyone have anymore info on this situation.
