New York, 1895
The west-bound mail train on the Port Jefferson branch railroad on Monday killed a German named Oscar Schultz. Schultz had been carting wood with one of his employer's teams all day and was returning home. The horses had just stepped from the track when the locomotive struck them. Both horses were killed and the driver was thrown directly in front of the train.
