Here is a story about a B&O wreck at Terra Cotta station in Washington, but the date was 12/31/06; why would it be mixed in with photos from 1912? query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9803E2DC1331E7... Here is a map of where the Terra Cotta station was (not sure if that is what we are looking at or not); looks like its not far from the Naval Observatory. www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=38.9508333333&lon=-77.00...

They don't seem to match up: the accident reported in the article happened in December and the photo appears to have been taken in the summer.

Detail showing damage to The Hansa

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

Bigger sailing ships like "Hansa" were Carvel-built. Frames were built first. Smooth planking was added later. This contrasts to Clinker-built smaller hulls. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/8467782806/
