RAILWAY ENGINES
IN OCCUPIED FRANCE. SHOT UP BY BRITISH FIGHTERS. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.10 a.m.) RUGBY, July 28. Railways in occupied France carrying war material for the enemy were disorganised last night by aircraft of the Fighter Command. Engine after engine drawing goods trains on the network of railways around Paris and in the big industrial areas of Lille were shot up. Many were disabled and their long lines of wagons blocked the permanent ways, throwing traffic out of gear for miles.
