Employes of the Delaware and Hud
ion and Delaware, Lackawanna
and Weitern Companies Had Un
pleasant Experiences During the
"Week Make-up of the Board for
Today Case of Engineer John
Troch Will Be Considered This
Afternoon.
During the week .employe of the
Delaware and Hudson and Delaware.
Lackawanna and Western companlps
have had experiences which show tho
grave danger of gas In tunnels. On
Wednesday It resulted In a runaway
train of the Delaware and Hudson in
a tunnel sixteen miles north of BIng
hatnton. Knglneer William W. Cnr
mody and Fireman William P. Vocglln
were In the cab. They were overcome
by the gas and the engine pounded
along at Us -own free will for a time.
Frank Hall, a brakeman, was some
what overcome by the gas himself, but
lecovered. Noticing the way In which
the train was running and knowing of
the trouble from his own experience,
he put on the nlr brakes. Fireman
Voeglln recovered sufficiently a few
minutes later to rhut off steam at the
top of the hill not far from the north
end of the tunnel.
To set the air brakes Brukeman Ball
had to reach the air hose from the car
bumper. By uncoupling the hose be
tween two cars ho let out the air and
pet the brakes on all of the cars of
the train that were supplied with air.
Had the train struck this point while
not under control the down grado
might have set It going at a disastrous
pace ond strlous trouble followed.
Both engineer and firemen were unablo
to work Thursday.
On Thursday the engineer and flrs
' man of train No. 4, running between
this city and Hobokcn, had a similar
" experience In the tunnel at Manunka
' Chunk. Both the engineer nnd fireman
were overcome by gas and dropped
unconscious at their posts. When the
train emerged the conductor realized
fomethlng was wrong and found the
men senseless In the cab. He acted
as engineer until Oxford was reached.
There the men revived after a short
time.
