A remote control engine at a power plant plowed through the plant
and smashed into a manned locomotive. The engineer of
the manned train narrowly avoided injury or death by jumping. The remote
control engine was pushing six coal cars at about 30 mph. The
remote controllled train did not respond to radio controls and
smashed through a shed before hitting the second train.
