TRAIN MISHAP
At Fanling Station
A minor accident occurred on Thursday evening at Fanling Station when the 8.43 p.m. Special Express from Kowloon fouled the Inst four coaches of the 4.35 p.m. Down Express from Canton.
No. 2253, Gunner U. Azzollini, 1st It appears that the brakes of the 6.43 p.m. Express from Kowloon Battery, as from. 30.9.35;
did not function properly and fall- ed to pull up the train clear of the fouling points. Meanwhile the "All Clear" Signal was given to the Down Express to enter the station, with the result that the buffer beam of the engine of the Up Special, which was stationary slashed the sides of the last four coaches. There were luckily no- body injured, but the passengers "got a bit of a shock" The mis- hap caused a slight delay,
