April 12, 1948 … A Mattapan to Egleston Square street trolley traveling down Seaver Street into Columbus Avenue lost control, jumped the tracks, and crashed inside the Egleston Square T Station.
Engine 42 and Ladder 30 were first on the scene.
Rescue 2, under the command of Lt. Freiberg, also responded. The transit motorman survived, but suffered severe injuries that resulted in both of his legs being amputated. Later, the men of Engine 42 and Ladder 30 took up a collection that was given to the motorman’s wife. Photo Credit and many thanks to our good friend Bill Cook for the historical information.
