Description
Donald's Crash is based on a real event that took place at St. Pancras on 20th July 1959. LMS Jubilee class 4-6-0 no. 45730 'Ocean' was backing down from St. Pancras Station to the MPD at Kentish Town when he missed a Signal at Danger. To protect the mainline, the points had been set into a short dead end spur, resulting in the engine colliding tender-first into the signalbox. Handsignalling was in force into and out of St. Pancras for several days until the signalbox could be repaired.
