    • Abstract:
      "Many times tornadoes have blown heavily loaded freight cars out of trains and in at least two instances they have wrecked passenger trains", Flora wrote. Arrows from northern Utah to southeastern South Dakota show the track of a storm that produced a tornado near Moorhead, Minnesota, which struck a moving train, killing one person and injuring dozens of others.
