Gembrini, Sam, 1862-1945

Dates:
Birth 1862
Death 1945

Biographical notes:

Two locomotives of the C&N railroad were swept off the tracks by a snow slide and landed at the bottom of a gulch at Camp Frances. The engines were hitched double-header, bucking the snow so as to open the road when the slide occurred. Four of the crew were killed in the accident.

From the description of Railroad wreck on Grassy Mountain. 1901 April 18. (Boulder Public Library). WorldCat record id: 427378066
