A Glidden man escaped injury in a train accident Saturday on A Avenue, which runs to the south of Ralston. The Greene County Sheriff’s Office reports they responded to the scene at approximately 6:35 p.m. The initial investigation revealed that 56-year-old Douglas Halbur was northbound, pulling two grain wagons with a tractor when a wheel fell off the second wagon. This caused that wagon to get stuck on the railroad tracks. Halbur was able to unhook the tractor and other wagon and get those clear of the tracks, but the Parker 4000 was hit by a Union Pacific Railroad train. There was an estimated 10,000 in damage to the train engine and the wagon was deemed a total loss. There was an estimated $3,000 of corn lost as well.
