This accident was photographed on March 18th, 1919. This postcard was not mailed and I have no information on the location. There is one telephone pole to the left. It does not appear to have any crossarms, just one or two insulators mounted on the pole sides. By the look of the damaged trestle, the train service in the area was interrupted for a while. I have no recollection of when or where I acquired this postcard.
