The wreck of 152 just west of Vermilion on August 4 1906. Three people were killed; Wilbur Moody, the motorman, and passengers Frederick Smiley, and James Yerrick. Early the following December another passenger, Andrew Ingrun of Pittsburg, died of injuries he received in the collision. <br /><br /> What you can't see in this particular photograph is the fact that nearly 2/3's of the car collapsed in the accident. It is visible from the other side.
