Reply To: Morley Bridge incident

[Webmaster]

The thought of the Morley bridge incident makes me feel ill. I can only imagine the horror that raced through the minds of the headend crew as they zoomed in on the counterweights that were fouling the track. I thank God for watching over me during my career. I had a close call or two, but nothing like this. It is especially sad if the bridge tender did in fact override the signal system and in essence cause this tragedy.
