Well, it has been thirty-six years ... and my memory has not been getting any sharper these days!
I do remember on night in my apartment on the third floor at 17th and Spruce in Philly, thinking that we might have had some kind of small earthquake. The next morning we found out the Lindenwold train had run into the wall at the E.O.T at the 17th and Locust subway platform (one block north.) It was quite late, maybe the motorman fell asleep or the computer had a glitch or something. But several of us wandered over from PCA in between classes for a look. It was a bit of a mess ... and difficullt to get to ... I mean, it was at the end of a tunnel with no access except from the rear.
