Having no know- lecge of what bad taken piace, the driver of the Leeds express came up at full speed and dashed with great violence into the ,broken canieges cf the Scotch train which had pre- viously been thrown upon the down line. A scene of indescribable terror and confusion fol- lowed, and the result of the two collisions was that twelve persons—six ladies and six gentle- men—were killed, and twenty more or less serlously injured, one of whom died.
