Lms14509

From what I have read, the first official notice of any relation to placement of Passenger Vans in collisions came after the Dinwoodie Accident in October 1928, where the "Royal Highlander(Euston to Inverness) hauled by an LMS Compound and Caledonian Dunalastair III 4-4-0 ran into a Freight only a few miles from the scene of the Gretna accident of 1915.The leading vehicle in the train was a steel sided LMS Full Brake. The locomtives were very badly damaged-(the Caley 4-4-0 written -off).However; there were no deaths,and slight injury to the passengers.
