Details of Event
Deceased was passing between a wagon and a dead end when the wagons were suddenly pushed up, catching and crushing him. Three men were attending the wagons, who between them should have seen that the wagon end was clear, but failed to do so, involving a breach of Sidings Special Rule 12. There is a regular thoroughfare past the wagon end, to protect which in future a stop block is being placed so as to leave a clear passage.
