TRAINS 'COLLIDE AT CLINTON While the C.N.R. train running from Toronto to Goderich at 11:10 a,nt. was taking water on the main line at Clinton on Monday, it was hit by the rear end of the London, Huron and Bruce train which is due in Clin- ton at 11:03, but was delayed by the storm, The London train had come into Clinton Junction and was backing into the station when it collided with the engine of the Goderich train. Al- though the brakeman was at his posi- tion on the rear end of the train he could not see the other engine until too close to avoid the collision, so he jumped down the steep embankment into the snow, escaping without in- jury: The rear coach of the London train was badly damaged and the train crew had to pull it as best they 'could on to the siding and go back to- •b'rucefield for another coach ;before continuing on to their destination.
