M. V. Lynbrook, N.Y., Thursday, February 17, 1966 LY 3-1300 10^ Per Copy
IN THE HEIGHT of the heavy rains Sunday afternoon, the Lynbrook Fire Department was called to the
Railroad Station when a Long Island Railroad train hot box caught fire. The vamps were hampered In
getting to the fire because of fierce arcing, caused by the rain with the power being on. As soon as the
power was turned off, they were able to extinguish the fire. Quick action by the Department as well as
the trainmen, kept damage and possible panic among the 200 passengers, at a minimum.
