Grand Forks, ND Train Accident, Feb 1906
FOREMAN WAS BRUISED.
Was Caught Between a Boxcar and Engine House at Diamond Mills.
Julius Walseth, a switch foreman in the Great Northern yards, was painfully injured yesterday morning at the Diamond mill. The crew was switching at the mill and in some manner Walseth was caught between a boxcar and the engine house, and terribly bruised. He was taken to a physician's office, where an examination failed to locate any broken bones, although the bruises were sufficiently serious to keep Walseth out of the service for several days.
