CPRR locomotive engineer Arthur H. Real (engine #3) - Train Derailment 1899

From: MaddyAnn51@aol.com

My great-grandmother's brother was Arthur H. Real. He was an engineer on the Central Pacific Railroad (engine #3). His train derailed in Clarks, Nevada in July, 1899.

I have an extensive story from the San Francisco Call, dated July 26, 1899.

Are there any other news accounts of this wreck? Especially hoping to find mention of the family he left behind since nothing of family is included in the SF paper.

I am working on family genealogy and any kind of assistance you can offer me regarding Arthur H. Real will be very much appreciated. Also, I'd welcome anything relating to him prior to his death. ...
