Train Wreck

July 1923

Four Die in Wreck

Albuquerque, N. M.
-- Engineers C. C. ROBERTS and JOE BLEVINS and Firemen WALTER H. CREWS and EARL HALL, all residents of Las Vegas, N. M., are dead as the result of Santa Fe train No. 9, “The Navajo,” being wrecked at Domingo, about forty miles north of Albuquerque. More than a score of passengers were injured, most of them slightly. Two engines and seven of the twelve cars in the train left the track and plunged down a thirty-foot embankment.
