• Notes

  from "The Bismarck Tribune", 2 Jun 1942 (newspapers.com) WESHEK, N.D. - A transient, believed to be Archibald Sylvester Woods of Oskaloosa, Ia., was killed when three cars of the nine-car mixed train on the Hankinson-Bismarck branch of the Soo line railroad were derailed about four miles east of here Monday. A draft card in the pocket of the dead man showed that he registered in the 45-64 draft registration on Apr. 27 in Richland county. He was believed to have been riding on a tank car when, with two merchandise cars, was derailed. Trucks on a baggage car were off the rails but the card was kept from tipping by another car which was a right angles with the tracks. B.G. Cross of Enderlin, division superintendent, said cause fo the accident has not been determined. Service on the line is expected to be resumed Tuesday, he said.
