Sample Quote "In this case, the driver or the 1.53 p.m. up passenger train, from Margate Sands to Ashford, was unable to stop his train at the proper place, and collided with a brake-van standing at the buffer stops. The blow knocked away the stops, and broke up the brake- van – driving it across the footway behind them, and partly through the end wall of the station. Nine passengers complained of shock or injuries. Some of the brickwork of the wall fell on a girl, as she was entering the station, with the result that she was badly bruised."
