FATAL DERAILMENT AT WASHBURN
Posted on 12 April 2010
On 25 March, two of five Dakota, Missouri Valley & Western Railroad locomotives heading north about 5km south of Washburn, xxxxxx, derailed on the banks of Turtle Creek when the ground beneath the track gave way. One crew member was trapped in the wreck and died at the scene. The other was taken to a Bismarck hospital. Railway personnel worked to contain fuel leaking from one of the engines, to keep it from spilling into the creek.
