TRUCKS DERAILED
BROKEN WAGGON-AXLE HEAVY DAMAGE DONE Press Association. DUNEDIN, To-day. When the goods train from Balclutha was passing through Green Island at 1.30 this morning the axle of a waggon broke, causing derailment of 11 trucks laden with coal and wood. A break-down train arrived an hour later. Some waggons were badly damaged and the contents were scattered all over the track. No one was injured. There is a double track to Mosgiel, so no passenger services were affected.
