On 9/11/36 in Chicago Illinois there was a collision between the 709 shoving a caboose and a cut of 15 standing cars. It resulted in three casualties. Stored at Conneaut 8/57. Sold to Luria Bros 4/18/1961. Dismantled by Lederer Iron & Steel in Cleveland 11/61. After doing some research, it looks like almost every one of these is a Berk. Not just based on how they look but a list of what was stored there and when they were scrapped. |
