1914, Photograph, B 57499
The coal train was derailed by a boiler explosion after leaving Port Augusta for Quorn on 28 March 1914. "About 2 miles of the journey had been covered, when travelling down an incline in the vicinity of the lagoon the boiler of the second engine (No 103), without the slightest warning, burst on the left hand side, and the concussion caused the engine to sway to the right hand side of the tack."
