Author: funnelfan

NS employee passed away in a hospital Thursday morning. Was a new conductor that hired out in August and marked up in November. Fell while getting off a railcar and had both legs ran over.

It is my understanding the "fell" part was a result of getting rolled between two sets of equipment, while riding the side of a car into a close clearance location.
