It was a terrible spectacle, dead! and injured, including women and children, being helplessly penned in the telescoped car- riages.
A passenger, describing it, told

Rows of seats-were-piled up.on top of each other in the telescoped coaches, and terribly mutilated passengers were sandwiched be tween:
