Title: 1944 Dyer Wreck
Post by: George Lortz on August 28, 2020, 09:15:54 pm

On May 18, 1944, there was  a crossing accident between a Monon freight train and a semi on US 30 in Dyer.  The THL Editorial Staff has been unable to find the ICC, FRA or Monon report of that accident.  Anyone have an idea where it could be found?

Thanks,

George L.

I've had no luck locating the ICC report on this wreck, but have come across the Newspaper story in the Hammond Times From the day after the wreck.
