tafe 2f THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, Salem, Oregon Monday. February 22, 19S4 Iv -''V ".,? TTT I m r . -' . . Two Wrecks In Northwest PORTLAND, WV-Slides loosened by recent heavy rains caused two train wrecks in the I'acinc, norm west Sunday. A twin-engine Diesel locomotive and 10 cars were derailed when an east - bound Union Tacific freight train plowed into a slide at Cascade Locks, Ore., 50 miles east of here. Twenty miles north nf Tlidgc field, Wash., a Union Pacific pas senger train struck a small slide. The front wheels of the engine were derailed but the rest of the train remained on the track. There were no injuries reported In eiiher mishap, T-affic was re sumed on both lines later in the day. At Cascade Locks, the locomotive nosed 200 feet beyond the slide before coming to a stop. The diesel units and several cars narrowly missed plunging into the Columbia Iliver, which borders the track through the Columbia Gorge. Engineer L. S. Tracy and fireman R. A. Aulcndacher, bolh of Port land, reported that a spring hanger at the side of the first diesel honked over the rails and kept the locomotive units upright as they skidded along, tearing up an esti mated 400 feet of mainline track. One of the derailed freight cars smashed into a telephone pole, rutting railroad communications between Portland and The Dalles. Portland to Seattle bound passen gers on the train which hit a slide at Ridgeficld were transferred to another train and the tracks there were cleared several hours later. Another slide Sunday closed the Columbia River .Highway east of The Dalles. State police said the road still was blocked Monday morning. PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 21 These two cars hanging pre cariously over river bank, are part of a 92-car Union Pacific freight train which slammed into a rock and mud slide in the Columbia River gorge 47 miles east of here today derailing diesel locomotive and 9 cars and tearing up 400 feet of track. Train crewmen escaped without serious injuries. (AP Wire-photo) Polk District Fi'es Petition l.nnrrt ml-inn that this district be consolidated with Dallas school district No. 2, according to F.
