Bill Craig General The wreck occurred between about 9:00 AM. I was in a first period class at McComb High School, 7 miles away but we all heard the explosion. The McComb Enterprise Journal had many pictues that afternoon, including a very grizly one of a burned body of the one of the crew unloading the freight cars. 2/21/2024 1:29:26 PM
