Otway Districts Historical SocietyPhotograph, Crowes: Locomotive G41 derailed, 1941, 1941
... Crowes: Locomotive G41 derailed, 1941....B/W. Locomotive G41 derailed at Crowes in 1941. A man stands where the engine is articulated....Crowes: Locomotive G41 derailed, 1941. Photograph ...A massive tree stump at the end of the Crowes yard served as a buffer stop for trains. In 1941 it was put to use when locomotive G41 spectacularly collided with it. On a particularly foggy night the driver became disoriented, passing unawares through Crowes station and smashing into the stump. The Garrett came to an ungainly halt, and it was three days before the work gang had the stranded locomotive re-railed. It became known locally as 'Over the Black Stump'.B/W.

Otway Districts Historical SocietyPhotograph, Victorian Railways, Derailment at Beech Forest, 1904, 4 October 1904
... Locomotive No. 3A and goods wagons following their derailment at Beech Forest, 4 October 1904....Beech Forest; railways; narrow gauge; derailment; Locomotive No. 3A and goods wagons following their derailment at Beech Forest, 4 October 1904. ...On Tuesday, 4 October 1904, the first serious railway accident occurred on the Colac-Beech Forest line near Beech Forest. As no train was scheduled that day in the afternoon the crew decided to fetch some wood from down the line. They fired the boiler on locomotive 3A, attached two trucks to the locomotive and moved out of the station. When they arrived opposite the Ditchley Park Hotel they stopped the engine and adjourned to the bar for some refreshments before beginning work. While they were engaged some local children boarded the unattended engine, started it, panicked when it began moving and jumped out leaving in to speed away and tip on a curve in a cutting at Ditchley. The engine was severely damaged. However, its cause remained an Otways secret. The official reason given for the accident is that the driver had fallen out of the engine while engaged in shunting allowing it to run away out of control.Locomotive No. 3A and goods wagons following their derailment at Beech Forest, 4 October 1904.beech forest; railways; narrow gauge; derailment; -
