PC: ICC accident reports online



All,

While this applies for all railroads, it is especially relevant for the 
Penn Central, considering how many wrecks and derailments they had. :)

There is a site online with full ICC accident reports from 1911 to 1994:

http://dotlibrary.specialcollection.net/

Go to this page, then click on "I.C.C. Historical Railroad Investigation 
Reports" and browse through the different years listed. Each report is 
listed by the railroad company involved.

For example, the famous OV-8 wreck at the Cleveland drawbridge is listed 
under 1974 as "Penn Central Transportation Company." There's also a 
search facility as well.
