Details of Event
He was caught and squeezed between an empty and a loaded sand wagon, owing to the engineman starting to haul away the loaded wagon before he had received a signal to do so. The arrangement to work without a signal, although the means of signalling were at baud, was made between the deceased and the engineman.
