Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus Accident 1918: Part 1 - Oscar Timm

Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus Accident 1918: Part 1 - Oscar Timm On June 22, 1918 the second half of a Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus train convoy was rear-ended by a empty New York Central troop train. The troop train's engineer, Alonzo Sargent, fell asleep at his controls. I talk about Oscar Timm, the first man to witness the oncoming troop train. #OscarTimm #HagenbeckWallace #Circus #Disaster #1918 #Gary #Hammond #Indiana #Ivanhoe #EJE #Railfan #GI #Discussion
