Hi,

I am new to the board and am seeking some information:

My family moved to Newark, Delaware in 1968. I remember a derailment on the B&O tracks in Newark, just past the College Avenue grade crossing. In the last few years, I have tried to find infomation about it on the Net, but to no avail. I can't remember exactly when, just that it was sometime in the summer of 68. If any knows of anywhere I can look, I would greatly appreciate it.
