tragedies

Great idea NLI. All too often these accidents result in multiple deaths and the effects on the community are extensive. The train driver involved is also deeply affected by the collision though he is unhurt in most cases! This is a cutting from the Irish Independent of 15/2/2004 Retired parish priest of Shanaglish, Co Galway, Father Patrick Healy, 68, was killed when the car he was driving was struck by the Dublin-Galway train at the level crossing at Oranmore. None of the 300 passengers on the train was injured.

Nice!

Binghamton NY was the site of a terrible fire in July 1913, when the Binghamton Clothing Factory fire claimed 31 lives. Twenty-one bodies were left unidentified, and after a memorial service at the Stone Opera House (presided over by a Rabbi, a Catholic priest, and a Lutheran pastor, just to cover all the likely bases), they were buried in the Spring Forest Cemetery. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1913_Binghamton_Factory_Fire Just a few weeks ago, Binghamton dedicated a plaque to the workers lost in this fire: www.wbng.com/news/local/51419212.html
