Wiping the clock is the right name for it, it was very rare. IN fact it only happened once to a CNJ loco, at the time is was on lone to the reading, and the engineer survived without injury. I remember seeing a pic of it in one of my dads books. I'll try to locate it when I'm there on thanksgiving.
