Original 1947 Associated Press Wire Photo showing the aftermath of a Burlington freight train derailment in Yuma, Colorado. The original AP caption states that 28 freight cars left the tracks and crashed through the town's two-story frame railroad station, injuring four people. Boxcars piled atop one another as sections of the station were demolished, with debris reportedly thrown as far as 200 feet. The photograph measures approximately 8¾ x 7¼ inches overall and is mounted on black archival paper with the original caption affixed below the image. From the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper. Please see photos.
