Page 03. --- After The Crash --- Bits of wreckage were scattered along the railroad track fro a quarter-mile after a car containing seven school children and two women collided with a C.P.R. train at Summerville, near Dixie, today. All nine were killed instantly. --- Crossing Where Fatal Accident Occurred ---- There were no witnesses and no survivors of the accident, described by Coroner Dr. W.

The husband of one victim and the father of another heard the crash and hurried to the scene. One of the Tibando children was recognized by her father by the dress she wore. --- Where Nine Killed --- Location of the railway crossing at Brown’s Line road in Summerville, where seven children and two women were killed in a level crossing collision today involving a school bus and a train, is shown on this map.
