New Haven 40 foot boxcar Leominter Ma Yard

I was told that an engineer in training didn't stop quite in time on the Derrick track, and the wheel stops did their thing, and the car (and other cars) did not stop, and the end result was the truck was pushed under the car body. Some weeks later it was fixed.
