Friday March 20, 1925 Killed in Train Crash TWO BUCKLEY MEN ARE INSTANTLY KILLED BY TRAIN SUNDAY Driving their Ford coupe directly in the path of the fast Milwaukee train, the Columbian, Ernest Lappenbusch, 30, and John Fadola, 30, both of the Lake Tapps district, near Buckley, were instantly killed by the collision, which occurred at Algona at 7:00 p.m., Sunday. The all-steel train, hauled by an electric engine was hurtling along the track at a 35 mile speed. Algona is not a stop station and the train did not slow down for the crossing. The train was coming into Seattle from Tacoma en route east. Engineer Walter Keene at the throttle sounded his warning whistle and Conductor Fred Wilder reported to the Milwaukee offices that the electric warning signal was in good working order and operating at the time of the accident. There is a clear vision for 2,000 feet on either side of the crossing, rail officials said. Officials of the railway company and the coroner's office were unable to explain why the two men sent their car directly in the path of the speeding locomotive. Both men met instant death. The coupe was demolished. The body of one of the two was hurled nearly 100 feet off the right of way and the other body was carried about 150 feet and dropped alongside the track near the top of the coupe. The chassis and engine of the Ford were carried a distance of approximately 2,000 feet on the pilot of the engine. Lappenbusch is a son of Mr. and Mrs. August Lappenbusch of the Lake Tapps district. Fadola has a mother and brother living in the same locality. The bodies of the two were taken to the undertaking parlors at Auburn. Funeral services will be held at 1:30 Sunday afternoon at what is known as the old Lappenbusch graveyard on the Lake Tapps road.
