1899-09-23At the shops in Ottawa East engine No. 624, the one that was in the wreck at St. Polycarpe, is being repaired and it will soon be in running condition. The two cars which were smashed are also being repaired.
The Ottawa Citizen of 1899-10-07 later reports 'Locomotive No. 627, that figured in the St. Polycarp wreck, has been repaired'; the two papers disagree on whether the wrecked engine was #624 or #627.
