  • Canadian Rail No156 1964
    c;an..adian.. )~~fin Number 156 / June 1964 :Belf£il, June 29, 1864. mlRECISELY one hundred years ago this month, on June 29th, g 1864, a special passenger train on the Grand Trunk Rail- way of Canada, carrying three hundred and fifty German immigrants, went through an open drawbridge at the village of Beloeil, Que., thus precipitating Canada's worst railway accident. Ninety seven immigrants, the conductor and the locomotive fire­ man and, two days later, a curious onlooker, succumbed, carrying the death toll up to an even one hundred. The passengers had come from Europe on the salling vessel "Neckar", disembarked at Quebec, and were ferried to Levis where they were loaded on the ill-fated train. which consisted of two baggage cars, seven cars normally used for produce but tem­ porarily fitted up for passengers, a second-class coach and a brake van. The train was pulled by the 4-4-0 locomotiv .. "HAM", No. 168 of the G. T. R .. a product of the works of D.C.Gunn at Hamilton. Special trains had depleted the supply of engine- and train-crew at Richmond, the intermediate divisional point between Levis and Montreal, and the locomotive foreman persuaded Will­ iam Burney, a newly-promoted engine driver. to take the train to Montreal, even though he had never operated a locomotive over the section. Conductor. fireman and brakeman completed the crew. Approaching the Richelieu River bridge between St. Hilaire and Beloeil at about 1 :15 AM, the train failed to make a mandat­ ory stop at the east end of the bridge, provided for in the Company rules.
