in 1884, the railroad bridge over the Little Miami River at Batavia, Ohio, collapsed under the weight of a train. The engine, baggage car and first coach fell 50' into the river. The last coach was very lucky.

The passenger train from Portsmouth to Cincinnati, with the director's car, two passenger coaches and baggage car, went down with a trestle one and a half miles west of Batavia.

The trestle was 100 feet long and from 12 to 25 feet high. The engineer felt it sinking and turned on a full head of steam, saving engine and baggage car, but not the three coaches with passengers.

A heavy rain storm was falling at the time. The coaches turned over and piled upon a miscellaneous wreck. No one was killed outright.
