GUEST,Jonathan Hewlett Origins: Wreck of the 1262/1256 (50) RE: Origins: Wreck of the 1262/1256 24 Oct 07


I know about the song Engine One-Forty-Three, and I also know it involved the C&O Railroad with engineer, George Alley. I also know that he was driving, the C&O's, FFV, ''Fast Flying Vestibule'' and had a train wreck near Hinton, West Virginia, October 23, 1890. His train
crashed against the rocks, and his engine was turned upside-down and landed right into the river. He was taken to the doctor, but it was too late. He died, very quickly. That is all that I know.
