| 1899-01-05 | The Pembroke Southern Railway Company | . The Pembroke Southern has met with its first accident. To-day as the noon express was pulling into Pembroke station the air brakes failed to work and the engine went tearing over the end of the rails onto the sidewalk on Pembroke Street, opposite the Post Office where it remains somewhat damaged. No other damage was done, however, and a wrecking gang is now at work putting everything into ship shape. | |
| 1899-03-15 | The Pembroke Southern Railway Company | Pembroke March 15. The Pembroke Southern had another accident Monday morning, but happily there were no serious results. The morning express had got about two miles out of town when the engine jumped the track and carried the passenger and baggage coach with it. The rolling stock was somewhat damaged, but no lives were lost, in fact no one was at all hurt. The wrecking train was soon on the spot and the work of getting the engine and cars back on the track has been occupying the attention of the crew all day. |
